Good Morning!

This week over at PAPERTAKE WEEKLY we have the challenge of a Sketch! As usual you can use the new sketch like I have or one of the older ones.

12 Tags of 2014 ... April!

Good Morning!

I managed to get this month's 12 TAGS OF 2014 tag done a lot earlier than the previous to make sure I didn't leave it until last minute again! I will admit to you all now though that I did cheat a little bit on the hand-made flowers part .. due to me being unable to get the desired die anywhere as it was sold out!

 I improved and used pre-made flowers. Shameful I know but it was the only way I could join in with the fun! 

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:

SIMON SAYS STAMP & SHOW - JOURNEY

INGREDIENTS -

Tim Holtz Trellis Framework Die

Tim Holtz Rub Ons & Mirrored Foil

Tim Holtz Tissue Tape, Idea-ology Thread & Idea-ology Embellishments
