Here's Tim's fabulous Fall tag...
and here's mine...another headless chicken...dashing around like a cat with a scalded bum "mega adapt and overcome" version...
A bit sombre for my liking...I can't begin to tell you how tempted I was to add some of Tim's fabilicious new Clear Rock Candy Dry Glitter...had to pull every inch of willpower out of the bag and I beg the answer to the question...why after following the technique to the letter does my snowflake look as dull as dishwasher compared to Tim's crisp and bright version but I ran out of time to have another go...
I'm off to raid the wardrobe and get my suitcase packed...the normal grungy Distress Ink nails have been given a sparkly Christmas ruby slippers make-over...we've had a "temporarily shutting up shop" tidy up in the cubbyhole and it will be early to bed tonight for tomorrow's 5.00am alarm call...crikey even that's too early for this "up with the birdies" girl but I'm really looking forward to my Fiskars Holibobs...after months of frantic crafty deadlines...5 days of no household chores...yummy breakfasts...meeting up with lots of crafty buddies and feet up fun evenings wining and dining with the Fiskars girlies are going to do wonders for my crafty soul.
See you all tomorrow
Hugs Kath xxx

ReplyDeleteKath your tag is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI like your muted version & snowflakes aren't always crisp & shiny - yours is a real life version. Take care with the travelling & enjoy the wining & dining.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous tag Kath, I think it's just as lovely as Tim's.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're going to have a busy day before you set off for the NEC. Sounds like a few fun, if busy days for you. No housework for 5 days sounds pretty good to me.
Have a great time and don't work too hard! Hope Buddy can look after Dad for you while you're away.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous tag Kath, Love the snowflake! fabulous colours... Have a super time in Birmingham!!! don't forget your camara... Hugs May x x x
ReplyDeleteOh I beg to differ. You tag does not look dull at all. I love the interesting faded/subdued look and it's what attracted me to want to click on your thumbnail. Love how your colours blend so nicely together and the detail shot of the snowflake showing the blue halo in parts make this technique look really cool. Hope you had a lovely Fiskars Holibob.
ReplyDeleteTim's background value is pretty dark which contrasts more and so makes the wheat look lighter and brighter. I expect that if you darkened the area behind the snowflake it would then appear as his does. Nicely done, just the same.
ReplyDeleteOh so creative and beautiful your tag is!
ReplyDeleteFab tag Kath and the colours look great to me!
