Tim Holtz Tag for the month of December

I have decided to play along with Tim Holtz this month for his tag. Boy, this was sure fun playing with the plastic with the frost. Needless to say I made a few of them. The techniques that he showed was just to much fun to play with. Using the paint for the resist on the tag was one of my favorite so far. I am going to make this my goal for 2014. Take time to make a tag each month along with Tim. Hope you like my tag as much as I had fun creating it.

Hugs~

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!

Hi all Flock followers...Ramona here to share a few projects I have been working on for my Flamingo Scraps DT project. I have used the Carta Bella and Lilly Bee Design papers that we had back in July. Which now might be found in the Warehouse Boxes for sale at the store. I had so much fun creating all these projects that would be great to put in stockings or on plates for your dinner guest. The patterns that I have used are some from Treasure Box Designs and Silhouette Store and cut on my Cameo. The patterns for the Mad Hatter ornaments can be found here. I used much of the paper that I had gotten between these and the Christmas book that I made. This paper is just so awesome not to waste one inch of it. Hope you like my projects as much as I loved making them.

I used Webster’s Pages Bloomers Red Sparkle. I also used a metal technique on the small one that I learned from Tim Holtz Creative Chemistry 2.

Who would not love this little mug full of Hot Chocolate on Christmas Morning?? I used a Prima Wood icon on the snowflake.

A little tea light on your Christmas Tree??

A present that contains a gift card. I used the new Platium Stickles on this and Love it.

Another Hot Chocolate Stocking Stuffer I so love this one with the snowman soup poem as in the above Coffee cup poem.

Hope you like my creations!!

Up and Away Easel Card with Nirvana from Marion Smith Designs

This project I decided to use Nirvana from Marion Smith Designs and make a cute Easel Card that I had seen on YouTube. I have seen these before and thought they were so cute so I am adding the link to mybutterflykisses12 tutorial here. This was so fun to create with this line!! I only used 3 sheets of paper and have plenty left. I have thought with this I could make a 4X4 mini album to stick in the drawer that pulls out. I had taken Tim Holtz Creative Chemistry 102 and used some of his techniques on this.

Here is the whole view of my creation.

I also decided that I wanted to make it a bit steam punk so I took black thread and sewed the strings on the hot air balloons.

Here is a view from the top.

Here the drawer open. I have thought with this I could make a 4X4 mini album to stick in the drawer that pulls out.

This month I decided to use this Beautiful Autumn Collection By Basic Grey, "Persimmon." I seen that I had the Wood Veneers and was looking at them and then it came to me use this pack of the Basic Grey Persimmon Wood Veneer Cards. So, this is what I did.
