Tim's 12 Tags of Christmas 2011 - Day Six
You absolutely have my permission to laugh, because I have found this experience quite amusing! For all the details visit Mr. Holtz and learn about foil paper and paint dabbers. Will be linking this to Inspiration Emporium.
The paint dabbers I have and used are white, gold, silver and copper. For the other colors, I used my enormous collection of acrylic paints, green, brown and red. Followed the instructions, sanded lightly and then covered with the Walnut Stain, which kind of gave my whites a dirty look, which of course I did not notice until I added the clear embossing powder. Now I wanted my whites to be white, so I decided to take a VersaMark embossing pen and cover the dirty white areas and then embossed with white EP. So that was done. Then I decided I wanted my tree to have a little more of a festive appearance, so I covered again with the pen and added a coating of a previous mix I made. So this is what I did for the last six hours and I am not joking about that. Well I did take about an hour off for lunch and coffee! You should see that room, because I have not really cleaned it up the last couple of days! Maybe tonight, as my DH is off at a class!

I didn't laugh! Because it's stunning! I love your tag! I spend my whole evening on mine. I made two tags, but still it was a lot of work for just one tag!
I didn't laugh either because 1- it came out great and 2-I have so been there! LOL!
No laughing here Terry -great take on Tim's tag!
Terry, I am so enjoying the 12 Tags through you! Another fab job! Best, Yvonne
I think your tag looks fine. I was too embarassed to even take a pic of mine!! No post for that tag! Oh well, yours has been all good!!
Pam
Fabulous- I cannot wait to try this- and will keep your tips for touching up the tag in my back pocket for whan I try mine! I love the layout and the deer up on the top!
Oh Terry, Your creation is fabulous and I am sure that Tim himself would be proud of you!!! It's gorgeous!

It looks Awesome Terry, six hours? Oh My, Well perfection takes time! LOL. I did mine in about an hour, I'm doing a mass post again tomorrow!
I spent the rest of my day cleaning my studio!!! hahahahahah
hugs Lynn
I have to say I am laughing at the six hours.. That sounds like something that would happen to me.. And believe me I have spent that much time and longer on a project. It takes me an hour to pick out paper. Your tag is gorgeous my friend. I think you did Tim proud..
Hugs, Linda
so much beauty and depth to this piece. really beautiful. thanks for your kind words on your visit my way. love to you this holidaty season! xo
Great piece - no wonder it took such a long time! Valerie
Wow I didn't laugh either - this is great and looks really effective!!
I just had to stop and have a look thru all of your Tim tags. They are withour exception, all awesome. I honestly could not pick a fav out of all of them. Tims tags are so fun to do. :)
I agree with all - no laughing - your tag is just gorgeous. Your touching up gave you just what you wanted and it's beautiful! I'm having a blast with the tags, too.
I am not laughing at all (despite being the rude person who laughed at the spider). It is absolutely stunning. I didn't like Tim's one but there have been some super alternative versions being made. I can believe it took 6 hours and lots of mess, well done,

I DID not laugh!
I also thought this was a tough one, as I don't really like the glossiness of the metaltape, but yours one turned out so beautiful!
It also took me a looooot of time to finish.....after finishing a tag, I always have to laugh at my workdesk... it always is a mess!
LOL! Well, it sounds like that was quite a process, but your tag looks amazing! The end result is FABULOUS!
No chuckles here - this is outstanding! I love your color palette. I know what you mean about the time thing and the mess, too! :-)
This is gorgeous. Such a lot of work too. xx
WOW!!! you did a FAB job with this Terry, I don't think I'll be making this tag, as I've not get any of the stuff :-( and can't think how on earth to improvise, DEbi x
6 whole hours Terry?? Whoa girl, you ARE certainly persistent, I admire that! As I do your gorgeous tags, love those textures!!
Gorgeous tag! I love seeing your takes on the 12 Tags of Christmas! TFS

Oh wow this is fabulous Terry. x
Wow, Terry, how cool is this It looks really great. Love it.
The white embossing powder looks really good on there! My craft room is a total disaster since the 12 tags started LOL
I have to say, I wasn't really crazy about this tag on Tim's blog but I love yours!!!
Your tags are gorgeous, Terry! Love them ALL!!!
I'm wishing you a wonderful Advent Season!
Hugs,
Gaby
We've got to admire your dedication Terry - and no laughing here as I think your tag is great! I haven't made any myself although do want to have a go at some (when I get around to it that is!)
I agree with everyone else. Your tag is stunning! I'm am really behind on mine so haven't attempted this one yet. But when I do I will think of you.
