True to form, I've left my May tag for Tim's 12 Tags of 2014, until the last minute! Why oh why do I wait until the end of the month when I am so stoked to see the tag at the beginning of the month, and can't wait to play??? I hope some of you can relate!
I think I took nearly 100 pictures of the whole tag in various locations, under different lighting, etc., but I just could not get the right look on tag. The pictures do not do it justice. Sorry. The close up photos are much better though.
I used Tim's Wrinkle Resist technique for the base of my tag. I know what you are thinking if you follow my blog a lot...PINK??? Yes...I felt the need for pink for some reason! |
I wanted to use all the eye images in my Tim arsenal. I think I achieved that. I love the new Debossing Folders...so fun! |
Oh...I've almost forgotten...I am not getting any feed on the blogs I follow for some strange reason, so if I haven't visited you in a while, I am so sorry. I hope to get this fixed soon.
I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!
Fab take on the original Anita and love your colour choice for the background too. Interesting choices also for the tiles!
ReplyDeleteThat is one beautiful tag ! Love the theme love the way you have rounded your corners and of course love your colours xx
ReplyDeleteMy daughter just painted me a watercolor of one of her eyeballs...it's fantastic and I just put it in my craft room today so when I saw your collection of fabulous eyes, I had to RUN OVER! This is sensational and your valiant efforts at capturing the true essence of this gorgeous tag has paid off. It's glorious and I love the colors!!

Hi Anita, what a gorgeous tag, love the colour combo too!! I've had some big issues with my blogger too, grrrrrr I get so frustrated and give up, hope you get it sorted soon xxx
ReplyDeleteThat's a cool collection of vision related items. I especially like the monocle. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteOh Anita, I can totally relate!! I was not sure about this tag at first but I too, had a wonderful time creating one. I think it is now my favourite (fickle me!). I love your take on it, the rounded edges are just perfect and I adore the monocle over the eye. A really beautiful tag! Love it. Hugs, Anne xx
ReplyDeleteMorning Anita - well it is morning here anyway!!! Love your tag. The pink and green combo is great. I know what you mean about being all fired up when Tim posts (not long now) and then suddenly it is the end of the month already ;-) Time flies when you are crafting. I wonder how we will do with June! I think I 'need' those debossing folders Hugs Helen x
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely a great take on Tim's May tag, Anita. Love the colors and your collection!
ReplyDeleteLove this, I think you have inspired me for my brother's birthday tag.
ReplyDeleteI can so relate! I too have not done my tag, might not even get to it before the deadline either...life gets in the way!
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you. Just posted mine last night. Fun with the pink. Great idea to create an eye theme. Love how you rounded the corners on your tiles.
ReplyDeleteLoving your tag for this month Anita. Sometimes I wait until the last minute also, I do that more than I do things early HAHA!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love the background.
ReplyDeleteHello Anita,
ReplyDeleteMy favourite colour palette is Lime and Green, so you had me sucked in immediately, the Tag is interesting with all the eyes, but one is not freaked out as they are subtle in appearance, the overall effect is gorgeous.

Love your tag. What a great theme...I love eyes, after all, they are the windows to the soul.
ReplyDeleteYour tag is just gorgeous!!! I really like how you used the Pink Raspberry to edge your tag, it draws the eye to the awesome composition and the little threads of pink throughout. As usual inspiring!!!
