My take on Tim's tag for May 2015

Well talk about by the skin of my teeth... I know I have been a bit of a bad blogger and blog friend ..but needs must sometimes.. Anyways...

As soon as I saw Tim's tag for May I was absolutely in love with it...as many of you may have noticed I do love the found relatives and the photo booth and the textures and layers of collage just made my heart sing in this tag...so here is my take .. still keeping mostly neutral..


I just adored all the details of his gorgeous tag and just changed a few things..I added some seam binding dyed with tattered rose and my blooms were cut from ivory card and the just a smidge of tattered rose ink swiped over them. I followed most of the steps and all Tim's details can be found here.


 I just love the gorgeous burlap against the soft flowers and crinkles of seam binding...yum!


I chose to add a flower to this gorgeous girl..the hardest part was choosing which of the photo booth pictures to choose ..there are so many gorgeous ones to choose from!


I loved these flowers and the tool which comes in the pack made them easy to do... isn't she a sweetie!


So I made it by the skin of my teeth and will be linking this up to Tim's tags here....not long to go and there will be another gem to inspire...I am sure.. but I have to say I do love this one!

keep those fingers inky!
