Yes I am gonna give it my best shot for Tim Holtz 2014 challenge. My first tag is - The Time is Now ....
I have so much Tim Holtz stuff that I thought surely I had enough to make his tags this year. Right off the bat I quickly found out that I did not have what he was using. So this is my take on his make.
Tim Holtz products used are:
the Vagabond - gosh I love that cutting machine
tattered flower garland die
distress inks - pumice stone, gathered twigs and black soot
distress paints - black soot
mini gears
ball chain
I am entering this into the 12 tags of 2014 January challenge.
Thanks for your visit and I hope to see you on the Tim Holtz challenge blog!
Sandy

Hi Sandy, thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you, your wonderful parcel arrived! I couldn't believe my eyes. I have tried to mail you, but the mails keep coming back! Thanks soooooo much for your kindness, and you have made me a really happy old girl today! Hugs, Valerie
Absolut Klasse Sandy!!!
LOL, Sandy,
somehow I always find that - even though I have a lot of Tim Holtz stuff - I don't have exactly what he uses on his 12 tags of 2013/14.... (honestly of course I know why this is so *lol)... improvising and coming up with a different version is much more fun honestly :)
LOVE your take on the January tag! And thanks for the nice comment on my blog :)
Greetings from Vienna,

Well done Sandy for starting with Tim's tags, and what a way to start! Love this. Jenny x
Love Tim's tags and you did an awesome job making due with what you have. We tend to have to do that a lot. :-) my dad had a pocket watch so always love the tags with them on it. I hope you're staying warm this Winter Sandy.

What a great challenge! Love your tag!
I'll tell you one thing, you really set a goal for yourself and I'm proud of you! I need to buy his books of wizardry and magic because I am completely lost to his techniques and I find that tags are so very different from cards and actually take me so much longer to complete; which is why I can count the tags I've done on one finger.
What you've created here is magical with your time piece sentiment. It's inspiring to see that you don't have to have it all (Timmy's toys) to create the illusion that you do.
P.s....I played with a certain vial of really fun stuff the other day and squealed like I was 4. It was nearly orgasmic! :D
So...Thank you...AGAIN!!!
hugs,
me x
Isn't this always the way, no matter how much we have we need something else! This looks better than Tim's!
HI, Sandy, wow.. your tag is gorgeous. Love the beautiful textures and colors. What a great start! :)
Definitely like yours more than Timz! Xxo
Wow Sandy that is one STUNNING tag, simply beautiful my lovely. I can't wait to see more, I love following what he is doing with the tag challenge and seeing how creative people are with substituting the products he uses - one day maybe!!!!!!!! Many thanks for your sweet visit too, much appreciated.
Huge hugs x x x
Oh dear!...maybe I'm doing a little too much "less computer time"...because I missed this. This is a great tag, Sandy. I watch his tag posts but I thought they were just to inspire your own take on the ideas and techniques. So I think you did great! I love a lot of his products, and he's got an endless supply of great inspiration. It will be fun to watch your tag progress too. Have fun!
gorgeous Sandy.

Wonderful take on the original!! Love how you adapted it! And good luck with doing all 12 of them!!
Oh this is one fabby Tim take! You have rocked the January challenge! We all use what we have, so don't let that ever stop you for joining in the fun! This is gorgeous!
Great details on this TH tag Sandy...you did so well!!
Hey There I'm finally here!!! I guess you really are giving it your all. Your tag is fantastic, had to click on it so I could see all the wonderful embellishments. Love your theme and you sure captured that. You did a super job, love what you have created and can't wait to see your next tag.
Hugs, Pat
I LOVE this tag Sandy! You have so much talent and creativity in your head and hands... wish I lived close because I'd be over to visit and craft with the master in a heartbeat!
