12 Tags of 2014-August

     Lately, I have had very little time to craft. However yesterday, by some miraculous divine intervention, I had about an hour for my art. So I sit down to make something


and.nothing.happened.  


     I was sooooo frustrated. Oh and for added pressure, I wanted to film my process because my YouTube channel has been so neglected. Whenever I am feeling uninspired, I go to Pinterest. While I was there I came across some a tag done by Tim Holtz for his web series, 12 Tags of 2014. I never participate, but for some reason I just had to recreate this tag.


     And so, this tag was born. Not as good as coming up with my own original idea, but I will take what I can get. In case you are unfamiliar with Tim Holtz, here is his tag along with his tutorial .
Tim's Tag

My interpretation of Tim's tag.

The Dina Wakley Media Stamps are amazing quality!

The modeling paste is subtle, but I like that about it.

The metal and stitching details make me very happy!











Thank you so much for stopping by!
