and the winner is....retiredheather!!!! send me your addy so i can send you the new grungeboard book to play with!!

now onto more tags - these are not t!m tutorial specific - just playing around:

this one is a grungeboard tag cut with a sizzix die in my cuttlebug. i covered it in peeled paint distress ink, embossed it with the tree folder in the cuttlebug and then rubbed over it lightly with brilliance galaxy gold ink. i also embossed the holly piece from the seasonal grungeboard set and painted it gold with a ranger paint dabber. i used peeled paint and fired brick distress stickles to accent and the sentiment is studio G!

this coaster tag is painted with tattered rose crackle paint, stamped with an image from inkadinkado's holiday classics in black soot distress ink and then rubbed with pine needles and fired brick distress inks and the ranger foam blender. i distressed the edges and then went over them with vintage photo distress ink. the swirl is from debbie's die cuts and is painted with espresso and gold ranger paint dabbers. i hung a fragment charm backed with patterned paper to finish it off.

find all the goodies you need to make these and more here!

i hope you like them and CONGRATS to heather!!
