i'm back ....my take on Tim's tag November 2012

well i am hopefully back to the land of ..being well,
 blogging  (my poor neglected blog)
and being up to visiting my blog friends...
i have felt very guilty and apologise that i have not stopped by...
thanks to everyone who has sent kind wishes and left lovely comments..
i hope i am now over whatever horrible virus i have had ..
and hope to catch up and get back to full speed..
 
so thanks to followers new and old..i appreciate it!
 
so enough...onto my take on Tim's tag November 2012...
now i know this will come as a shock...as it did to my Hubbie..but I didn't have the stamps!?!
I know i was shocked too..so I did a festive spin.
Tims tag can be found here..and is as always fab...
and here is mine:
 
 
I tried hard to master all the techniques Tim shows in fab detail
here..
but boy this was my fourth go at the trees....
the others..
well they are in the ssshhhhh........b i n.!!!
 
 
i used my new foliage die to cut festive foliage..
and coloured some idea-ology pearls for holly berries..
(think Tim may have done this last year...
sorry cannot remember when...)
 
 
i Love doing these tags ..and have learnt so many cool things..
and some i need to master...like the tree technique....
 
 
anyway , thanks for stopping
have a  fun and inky day!!!!

  3. Love your Christmas version of Tim's tag, I spend every month wishing I had the right stamps to do the challenge but miracles do sometimes happen ( like this month when I DID have them :-D)

  7. Hi Trace, I know how awful that bug was but so glad that you are feeling better now! I really love your take on Tim's tag, I don't have the stamp or wording either so may have to follow your lead and do something different too, just not sure what......... Take care. Hugs, Anne x

  12. Seems like the fourth go was the trick - they look great! Love your bluesy background too, and the bright berries against it. So glad to hear you're feeling slightly more yourself - what a long haul it's been... poor you. Thanks so much for your lovely comment over at Words and Pictures - as always so much appreciated, and - as one of my earliest supporters - I'm so grateful for your positive feedback and the inspiration I always find here - thank you!

  15. I LOVE (no, that's not strong enough) ADORE your tag Trace. Perfect background/colours/trees and that holly is to die for (no pun intended!) What a relief you didn't have the stamps, as we wouldn't have been treated to this beautiful piece otherwise.
    Hope you are back on your feet/builderless/not so busy very soon. Hugs, Buttons x
