Hi Everyone...............I always love the weekend and especially when I have some crafty time :-)
Today I am sharing my take on Tim's January Tag. Although I did not have all the elements that Tim used I was able to improvise and I am delighted with the result.
You can find Tim's tag and his tutorial by clicking HERE.
Unfortunately I only have the small version of Tim's Sizzix Pocket Die, so I thought I could perhaps alter his Sizzix Alarm Clock die, which you can see below. It was pretty large when placed on the size 8 tag and so I decided to use Wendy Vecchi's Art Parts Pocket Watch
I also used another of Tim's embossing folders :-)
You can see the bottom of my tag and the distressed TH Adage Ticket as well as TH stencil's and a stamp from Tim's Stamper's Anonymous Small Things set
At the top of my tag, you can see that I used another of the SA Tiny Things stamp and a Time rub on.
To trim the top of my tag I used some of Tim's Tissue Tape as well as an Idea-ology trinket and key.
The photograph below is of the centre of my tag before I splattered it with paint.
Thank You so much for taking the time to view and comment on my take on Tim's January Tag. I know how difficult it can be to manage your own time and I really do appreciate your visits.
See you Tuesday with my DT make x
Sending you huge crafty hugs xx
Annie...your Tim style January tag looks really cool! I love the alarm clock die cut that you used on yours. Your background with the sepia tones stenciled in and black stamped on top is very striking. I also love the metallic embellishments. They really finish off your tag perfectly. I also wanted to thank you so much for the very sweet comments you left on my blog regarding my last post as a member of Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. I look forward to the new twist in this art journey we're all one. <3 Candy
ReplyDeleteThis looks totally fabulous Annie, love how you adapted the original!! Believe it or not, I just finished mine five minutes ago, and guess what? I used the Wendy art part too because I did not have the die, - telepathy or what? Mine looks quite different though luckily..... I love your version and how you finished the whole thing, it looks greaT!!

ReplyDeleteFab improvising with the watch frame, and I love your grungy background with the fantastic layered stencilling. Great take on the tag, Annie - hope you're having a lovely Sunday!

ReplyDeleteYour take on Tim's tag is fantastic Annie, I love Wendy's Art Parts and you have certainly put it to good use on your tag. Great improvising - sometimes I am glad not to have all the things needed because it makes me 'think' how I can adapt it. I love the wonderful background, your splatters look amazing - I think this is my new favourite technique! Also love the binoculars and the bee - great finishing touches. Hugs, Anne x
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE!!! The Art Part is perfection, and your background sublime! I'm PINNING!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Annie, it is a wonderful tag, i have follow Tim's blog all over last year and i love what he is doing!
ReplyDeleteI prefer the colors you used in the clock than Tim's one!
Wow, that's a fantastic take on Tim's tag. Great details.
ReplyDeleteLove your take on tim's tag! What a great idea to use an artpart instead! I need to figure out an alternative too, as I also have only the small pocket watch... Hugs, Sandra
ReplyDeleteIt was wonderful to sit and view your photographs, absorbing all the details such as the stencilled background and your use of the Art Part.
ReplyDeleteSo much more than a tag!
