Still more playing with Tim's Tag for June

I had a free period of time... and decided to play with Tim's June Tag again... I really enjoyed doing that type of background... AND I had a few new stencils... so I needed to use them... I don't like to have unused things in my studio...  LOL..  Paper is okay... but other things need to be used and tried out... 

So I started to play... and some of the backgrounds didn't come out really good.. not enough water... too much water... too much ink etc. etc... so all of a sudden I had a ton of backgrounds...

 
Some good ones...  still to be used...  LOL.. so maybe with any luck I will be able to make a few more... not now... got a full schedule this week-end... and this afternoon...  ugh... I love to play.... 





 
I added more ink to give an even more in depth look...  Love this too...  and the colors were really spurring me to create with these...  you will see... 

 
 
So I guess it is fair to say that I really did have fun... and since I LOVE hearts... it really turned out to be my favorite stencil for this one... 
 
I do have a stash of all the background papers I make... so the extras went into that bin... and WILL BE USED at a  later date... 
 
Okay.. then I started to create some of them...  trimming them all up and getting ready to play was a lot of fun too... getting out all the things that I wanted to play with ...  just good old fun.  I think I made about 25 backgrounds... prolific??? Not a chance...  just having FUN... 
 
 
Even though the background wasn't as good as others... I wanted to use the colors... love them...  Capture Magic Now is on the chit chat ....  I wanted to use some of my new Wallflower pad... so I cute out this little bird... I SEE You...  silly huh??? Just a good mood after playing and creating... 

 
Again a fun background... using Victorian Velvet and edging in Walnut stain....  adding all the pictures is also fun... I do happen to enjoy cutting out things...  so that is fun to me.. 

 
LOVE my DRAGONFLIES... so this one had to be put into the Pickled Raspberry and faded jeans...  love the way the colors blended on these...  really love it... 

 
I also cut out a free cut flower set...  and love that... sorry that these pictures really don't show things up... I think I have to figure out which things on the camera I fiddled with and didn't put back... oh well..  I should really remember the settings...  memory !!!  the name on this tag...
 
UNDERSTANDING CRAZY...
 
 
Can anyone relate???? 

 
Okay... started to get a little bit warmed up... and added a side panel on this one...  Love my CROW... Thanks for the CROW Tim... I love this one...  right size and all... perfect.. 
 
Anyway... added a few roses... as the roses are all blooming here... and the butterflies are all around... as are the dragonflies... love this time of year... even though we are having night time severe thunder and lightening storms...  it is okay... cools us down a little bit, and also waters the raised beds...  our farm requires a lot of water...  and because it is so spread out... it is very difficult to water... 
 
 

 
This is on the inside of this tag... The word is REMEMBER...  LOL.. wish I could remember it all... but I remember enough to get me into trouble... 
 
Made a few paper beads for this one, out of extra side papers that were trimmed off to create the tag... 

 
Really had a blast with this one...  layers and layers of all kinds of papers... from coffee filters, sheet music, book pages, printed papers, etc etc... there are a lot of layers on this tag... and then I added a bow... and a large flower using coffee filters, and the tattered floral die cut... that die cut is one of my all time favorites.. I have done a lot of classes using that die cut...  everyone loves it... 

 
I saved my all time favorite for last... 
 
I took a sheet that I had made and stamped Queen Anne's lace all over it and embossed it with white embossing powder... 
Then I cut it all up and put the squares onto another sheet...  that I used another one of Tim's techniques on... picking up inks from the worksheet...  my all time favorite to do when I am up in the middle of the night... makes no noise and lots of mess... love it..
 
Okay.. .then I used a paper punch for the lace and made three rows of that... adding a little vintage to the bottom one only...  made a few more beads... and added a flower... 
 
It still needed something else... I didn't really want words on this... so I added a favorite .... a rusted dragonfly... and I dressed the dragonfly with some gems... very deserving of them too... she was so very excited... 
 
Add a little heart that says I LOVE YOU...  will give this to my sweet hubby for Father's day... 
 
Hope you have enjoyed this...  and please go to Tim's site...  and view all the tags this month... there are some really beautiful ones... I think everyone really enjoyed this tag of the month... know I did...
 
Thanks for coming to visit me here... and hope you have a GREAT Day...  I know that even though I will be unable to play.. .I will enjoy my day... and will keep in mind that I will be playing tomorrow...  
 
Thanks... 
 
Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie

  2. Oh, my word... I'm sitting here with my jaw dropping to the floor in sheer delight! Wow, Bonnie! I can see just how much fun you've been having with this technique, and your tags are stupendously gorgeous!

    I thought the Victorian Velvet with the bird and flowers and that glorious red ribbon was my favourite, but then I found the dragonfly, and then I found the triple roses on the flap (in my favourite colour combination too) and THEN came the millefeuille layers of paper, and THEN the meadow flowers on top of that... I think that's what's known as an embarrassment of riches. Absolutely mind-blowing! I may have to pick the crow as favourite after all... or the layers... or the last one... Nope - they are all magnificent.

    Thanks so much for your comment over at Words and Pictures that nudged me into a visit here... I'm off to have an explore!
