Tim's Tag Techniques


Happy Friday Everyone - the weekend is almost upon us.

Today it is me, Brenda, who is your host for this challenge but first I have to say
the collage entries have been amazing over the last 2 weeks
We are going to have such a difficult job again choosing the winner and top 5.
For this next challenge, I am asking that you choose any of
(so that gives you 48 to decide from) ....
and use his techniques to create your own Christmas project.
You don't have to re-create T!m's tag, in fact you don't have to make a tag at all,
it could be a card, bag or altered item.
Please just tell us which tag you have chosen and the techniques you have used from it.
This really gives you the opportunity to be as creative as you want, but with a T!m seasonal theme.
Now Don''t forget we have a prize of a
£10 gift voucher
for the Stamp Man shop up for grabs.
All the challenge details and rules for entering can be found by clicking the associated tab at the top of the page.
Our super talented design team have been very busy making lots of inspiration for you. You can click on their names to see more info on their wonderful projects.

  2. Some gorgeous tags there for the DT. I got really inspired by this idea and have made five cards so far, shame I can only enter one - have left a link to the first and will be posting the others over the next few days if anyone wants to pop over and have a look. Many thanks for the inspiration.
