Tim's Tags of 2012 July

Hi peeps. Here is my entry for Tim's July tag and would you ever have laughed if you could have seen me try this one! I don't have an air machine thingy and thought, no probs just blow. Well blow I did and it doesn't work like that air can I promise you. Several tries in the bin and this old girls face getting redder and redder, till in the end I thought I'd better stay with this one!

I wanted to make the 4th July tag because I visited New York for the first time last Christmas and was bowled over, so here is my tag in memory of a wonderful time. I had some of the stash Tim used and improvised with the stamp and the trinkets hanging from the ribbon, which I replaced with a  'I love NY' stamp on an apple and three stars on a scrap of grungboard that I dyed red and blue with alcohol ink. Wish I could have made the ink splatter the same but to see the masters blueprint if you have been visiting planet Mars go here! Have a good week everyone - x

  4. Great tag. I think we all went red in the face trying to blow the alcohol inks but I decided to spend my money on stamps rather than an air can!! It very patriotic!!

  6. Cool! I am participating in the TH 12 Tags of 2012 too, but I believe my tag for July came out a little too busy. Oh well!
