12 Tags of 2013 - January

Hello all!  The fabulous Tim Holtz is challenging us again this year with the Twelve Tags of 2013.  And per my m.o., I am getting mine in just under the wire.  I pretty much followed Tim's instructions because I really like his tag.  I didn't have the saying stamp, so I used another one of his.

I can't believe tomorrow will be February!  I've been working on my calendar page for Kate Crane's challenge, and will post it in the next few days.

Thanks for stopping by!  I appreciate your comments :)

Happy New Year!

So I've been bitten by the art journaling bug.  Side effects appear to be an endless appetite for all kinds of journals and a craving to color like a kid again.

I'm not sure where I first came across Kate Crane's blog, The Kathryn Wheel, but she started a monthly calendar journal challenge last year (I think it was last year)...you can read about it here.  And with the new year, I thought this would be a great time to try a new 'media'.  It was a lot of fun to create, and am looking forward to next month! 

 

 

I'm entering my pages into the following challenges:

 

Stampotique's Designer Challenge #81: Journal Cover or Page, Diary or Calendar Page

 

Simon Says Stamp:  New Something  (I used new paints, markers and stamps).

Happy New Year!

CC2: Happy Birthday, Mr. Holtz!

Happy New Year everyone!  I wish you all a healthy, happy and crafty new year!  And with the beginning of the new year comes the birthday of an awesome and talented man, Mr. Tim Holtz!  For the finale of the Compendium of Curiosities Vol II, Linda has given us the final challenge of creating a birthday card for Tim.  I hope he likes it!

 

 

 

Thank you, Tim, for being you.  And thank you Linda, for the excellent finale to our CCvII journey!
