Tim's birthday card...err...tag!
Linda at Studio L3 posted her Grungy Monday challenge and this time it's for Birthday Cards for those who love Tim. And we all know I'm in that camp! Here's the link to Linda's post if you'd like to make your own card.

I decided to change things up a bit, since Tim is the King of Altered Tags and make a tag for his birthday. I started wtih Distress Stains in Peeled Paint, Dried Marigold and Stormy Sky to color the tag. Then I used a Stampers Anonymous collage stamp for the background. Using Tim's houses die, I cut one out then stamped the Happy Birthday girl (from Red Lead) and used Luminart in Playful Poppy and Mandarine Citrine to color her hat, shoes and cake. Grabbed a Journaling Ticket and distressed it. I used a Life Key and Journey muse token and painted them with Copper and Silver Paint Dabbers then highlighted the words with Claudine Hellmuth Studio Charcoal Black Acrylic Paint. Then I sanded them down a bit and used Vintage Photo Distress Ink on them and embossed them. A timepiece, steampunk gear and clock hand finish off this tag.

Rockin' day 1
Hello and Happy 2012! Hope everyone had a safe New Year's Eve last night.
I decided I'd start out 2012 with a challenge for myself. Using the CTMH Rock The Block stamps, I am going to try and post a card a day for the month of January. The cards I'll be making will be going into Debbie's box for her annual Save R Sight Walk/Run coming up in April. She will use the cards I send her in her raffle.
The first cards I used up what was left of my CTMH Roxie paper pack. All of the stamps used are from the Rock The Block set and are only available thru the end of January. In addition to the stamp set, I have also used Stickles Star Dust, CTMH Glitz Glitter Glue Bronze and CTMH Pearl Opaques. I tried to keep all of the cards on the flat-ish side since they will be raffled off and I don't know if they will be sent thru the mail. I'm not gonna do a lot of 'splainin each day. If there is something specific you'd like to know, shoot me an email and I'll try to answer best I can!
So on with the show!!!
