So here ,after a very long time ...is a tag...just for me to get inky and sit at my dusty desk....and play with some of my much loved Tim Holtz goodies!
So ... why a tag ? ....because I love them...they make me smile and take me back to playtime really...
so this tag has some texture paste applied through different stencils...(inspired by creative chemistry 103- way back in the summer) -
some of my favourite distress inks....still my favourite - although now have my eye on the new oxides..oh boy Tim is the total inky guru!
I added some of my much loved idea-ology and a found relative....cut out ....but soon I won't have too when the new Tim paper dolls find their way to me!
So there you have it ..a tag ... a promise to myself to try and find some small windows of inky time ...just for me ...
I have chosen some of the chit chat stickers that spoke to me ... and are there to remind me ...
So not sure anyone will still remember who I am , or if you're still out there ...but it feels good ...just to be here x
I would like to enter this into the challenge over at Frilly and Funkie (by tthe skin of my teeth ) - as the challenge is New years inspiration ....and mine is to try and find some small snippets of inky time...and play...
here's to finding stolen moments to get inky!
