12 Tags of 2014 - December

Twas the last post before Christmas, and all through the house, my craft stash exploded, and angered my spouse!!! BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Yes, I'm delirious, but I've saved the last post of Christmas especially for my December take on Tim's 12 Tags of 2014! It's the last of his tags this year, and I hope he does this again next year! He inspires me immensely, as well as so many of you! Thank you Tim for all the gorgeous work and inspiration this year!

I decided to make two tags as well, and went with Dina Wakley's Scribbly Bird stamped on Grunge Paper for the second tag.

The Crafty Scrapper's 12 Tags of Christmas - Day 12

Oh no...four more days to go! ACK!!! This is suppose to be a time of peace and not stress...right?!! So instead of doing what I need to do, I'm doing what I want to do...craft! So I was thrilled when The Crafty Scrapper asked me to be apart of their 12 Tags of Christmas, and I snagged the 12th tag space, the last one, the one you will remember first...oh my word what was I thinking? The pressure, the stress...just joking...it was a pleasure to make as this is my favorite time of the year, and I love to break out all the Christmas crafting goodies in my hoarding stash!!! Here's a snippet of my tags, made with lots of Ranger Liquid Pearls and Tim Holtz Sizzix Dies, and you can see the rest of them here! Oh...and be sure to look at the other 11 tags, as it's some gorgeous and inspiration tag work!!!

Gotta go and get ready now...it's my 21st anniversary, and hopefully hubby will take me out! Merry merry Crafty Christmas and Happy Crafty Holidays!!!
