The plan today was to work on a couple of challenges,

however...

life happened.

So after a bit of running around and things finished that needed finishing I decided to play with my Cameo and made this wreath.

I used Tim Holtz Coordinations Papers and

 Really Reasonable Ribbons Metallic Hemp Cord.

Maybe I'll get to those challenge plans tomorrow!

12 tags of 2012 - November

This is my attempt at Tim Holtz tag this month...

I used peeled paint, broken china and weathered wood distress stain on the background.

 I added rusty hinge, mustard seed, fired brick distress inks.

The flower, canvas scrap, mesh, and yarn are from my stash.

The leaves are from I am Roses.

The pearl drop piece is from Pro31 Design.

Happy Birthday...

Hi everyone!

I had the chance to play in my scrappy place today!

Actually I ignored all the cleaning I should have been doing and enjoyed myself instead!

LOL

A couple months ago I found some Graphic 45 papers,

A Proper Gentleman Collection,

at Tuesday Mornings and I bought too much!

After giving some away to a couple of people I still have enough to take care of masculine cards for quite a while now,

so.......

Over at Sugar Creek Hollow, this week, the challenge is 

"For the Boys"

 so I decided to make my husbands birthday card a little early

(he doesn't get older until next month). 

I roughed up the edges with my Tim Holtz distresser and added some vintage photo distress ink.

Gave the lower image and the birthday wishes tag a lift with some pop dots.

The ribbon, button and twine are from my stash.
