Jingle Bells

 I really didnt' have the time today to do another tag... but what the heck... I had to take the time to do it... the other things will have to be done later... LOL... this is far more important than my list of things to do... right??? 


Anyway... this is another example of Tim's 2nd tag...  


I took a 6x3 kraft tag and clear embossed the words of Christmas and holiday and #25....then I used picket fence distress stain...on the entire tag... allowed it to soak in and then dried with a heat gun...  I grunged the edges up and then used a light inking of Iced Spruce on the edges...  with my blending tool and also with the actual pad to get a little more color in some areas...   

 Anyway... back at the ranch... I used some of Martha's punches to make the accents on this tag...  the lower branch and the upper one... were painted with Gold Twinkling H20's... and the one around the deers neck was painted with Distress stains...  The Bells which is also a Martha punch is accented with Gathered Twig and a blending tool... as I wanted it to match my deer... which is done the same as Tim's...  Around the deers neck I tied some black hemp cord... and a RED JINGLE Bell... since this tag is all about Jingle bells...  LOL... and of course the Christmas token is JINGLE.... so it is perfect for this .... as are all the tokens.. you just have to have the right one for each usage...  







Simple... and done... wish that posting this was as easy as making the tags... LOL... dial up has been brutal today...  five times as long to post as it has been to actually make the tag...but I love sharing... 


I am going to have to write to Tim and tell him personally how much I love doing this... as I can't even use another browser to post a comment... I think it has to do again with the lovely dial up???  not really sure... but have never been able to leave a comment... 


Thanks for all the peeks... leave a couple of words now and then too... and also check out my Christmas tags each morning at 8:00 AM  EST....  until December 25th...  a new one each day...  

This tag I am also putting on Grungy Monday challenge... as it is an open one... please stop by and see all the pretties... hopefully you will join in on the fun... Linda is a sweet person... and the challenges are all about TIM's stuff...  so join in the fun..  
 
This tag also appears on Inspiration Emporium… so please take a few minutes and check out all the WONDERFUL tags there… they look so different and I personally think there are some there that are not on Tim’s … but check it out…

Thanks Shelly for telling me about this site… I love it… will be going there often…  that is for sure… my kind of site…



Have a fun and creative day... see you tomorrow somewhere... you never know where...  LOL... enjoy creating and also the mess of it.. 
Love, Light and PEACE.... Bonnie
