12 tags ala tim holtz

anyone remember Tim Holtz's ultra-fab tutorials last year - the 12 tags of christmas?? they were my first intro to all things tim and i was hooked instantly! i have since used many of the techniques in all sorts of projects since. i asked tim and he does not know if there will be a similar set of tuts this year BUT in honor of the creative genius that is tim a new yahoo group was started called all things tim which i of course joined immediately (you can too - see the button on the right hand column of my blog). on the group we have decided to go through each of his 12 tags tutorials IN ORDER. our goal is 2 a week but we all know how time can get away from us!! at the groups request for ease of supply buying i have created a new page on my website that has kits put together for the supplies for each tag AT A 10% DISCOUNT! i am hoping y'all will all join in too! i have to say it is a wonderful journey through product exploration and creativity with tips that you will use over and over again.

and while we are talking all things tim - STILL NO DISTRESS STICKLES. i am quite sure i will spontaneously combust if i don't see them today (EGADS)! so i appreciate all your patience with getting your orders! and still no word on distress crackle paint......

and while we are talking tim here is a recent card using one of his tag tutorial lessons on distress embossing powders:

i have lots more stuff to come - i was very busy for the crop over at Scrapping Friends and will be getting the items up soon along with a tutorial on porcelain ornaments....... here's a teaser for you:
yep that started out as WHITE! my mom will be here tomorrow *happy dance* and we will be working on more. also i will be doing a one time custom order for blanks so if you want some be sure to tune in and get the info - there are alot of different styles to choose from!
