Tim Holtz Inspired

Good morning!  I have been busy getting grungy with lots of Tim Holtz awesome dies and distress inks.  I love working with these.  I used Tim's Large Tag die for this tag.  The stamps used are a large set of Stamper's Anonymous "Tim Holtz Collection".  These are the Mini Halloween set.  Lots of spooky images!
Here are a couple of photos of my tag.  I have had these die cuts for a year and am finally using them.  I die cut everything from cardboard and ran the cuts through a crimper.  Gives them a nice dimension.

 I love Halloween and really enjoy creating fun papercrafts to celebrate.  Thanks for stopping by, will be back with more later!

This & That

Well I spent this morning working on this blog.  It is slowly coming together.  I forgot how to do many things, it takes a great deal of patience.  There is definitely a learning curve.  I am just going to enjoy the process.  

I have my Spooky Halloween Tag to show today.  I saw something similar on Pinterest and thought I would make my version of it.  I used all Tim Holtz Alterations Dies.  These are fabulous, I love them.  So easy to use with my old Sizzix machine.  Here is a photo of my tag.  I used distress paints and glitter.  I dyed and crinkled my ribbon.  This was really fun to make, love that grunge look.  Sorry my photo is so busy, I will have to work on that.  

Well have a wonderful Sunday.  I have some new Stampin! Up! goodies to make Christmas cards with.   Rose

New Blog

I decided I would start blogging again.  I had a blog several years ago, I blogged about my crafty creations, enjoyed it.  I joined blog groups, design teams, entered my cards and projects in competitions, had a ball.  So I took a break and am ready to join in and share my love of crafting again.  I have named my blog "Whatever!"  I plan on sharing whatever I feel like creating.  A little of this and that.  I will be back tomorrow with something I have been working on.  I love seasonal projects and have been working on some tags.  I am so excited to be blogging again!
