Well this Journey ended all too quick for today is Day 12 in the 12 Tags of Christmas being hosted by Tim Holtz
Tim's design was all about Shabby Chic. I had almost nothing that Tim used so this is my interpretation.
I first covered my tag in Seasonal Tissue tape. Next I covered the tape with Picket Fence Distress stain, then white paint dabber. Once that dried I then covered the whole tag with embossing ink and embossed the whole tag with iridescent embossing powder then inked over that. The Artful Dwelling piece I covered in Broken China distress paint and inked the edges with Black Soot.
I love the layered letters that Tim showed. I have been doing this for a while and love the way it makes letters pop.
I was trying to show the colors that are reflecting in the background which doesn't come across too well in the photo.
What a great year of tags. Now I need to get busy with some cards.
Merry Christmas Everyone!
