12 tags of 2013 - February

Hi everyone,

What did Tim Holtz spoil us with another stunning tag. I'm delighted that he continues this year with the 12 tags! What a gorgeous tag he has made for us​​. I honestly had a little struggle because I didn't have the  beautiful blueprint stamps and I needed to find a replacement. But I'm happy with my alternative
This time I made ​​two tags at once, because I have a swap but I also want to have all the 12 tags for myself. I've never made ​​a project multiple times simultaneously, usually when I need to make more than one, I make a sample first and then I make the rest simultaneously. But then you already know what you want to do. It was a fun experience!





The heart on the wings is an exclusive stamp from Simon Says Stamp! And I cut it out with the matching die. The round tag is an exclusive too! What are those cute huh?
I don't have Kraft Core so as an alternative to emphasize the embossing I used red chalk.




Thank you for stopping by! Love to see you next time!

Hugs,
Sandra

I love what you did!! Great pick for a replacement. I am with you on keeping one for yourself, thankfully we have our blogs to reflect on what we have made after giving it all away, which I love to do too.
Have a great day!

That's a wonderful valentine's tag. I'm struggling with the tag this month for the same reason - no blueprint stamps. It's seems a bit naughty for me to use a stamp from someone else, oh the ethics of crafting lol! Love your take on it, and that red is sooo sexy :-) Maddy x
