January 12tagsof2016

So I jumped on the chance to make the January #12tagsof2016. However realized I was out of black paper and white ink. Oh and I didn't have the folder. But a friend in Atlanta had it so she embossed it for me while I was at CHA. It was at home waiting for me, I was so super excited. 

I know can you believe 😳no black paper and white paint yea crazy I know!!! Totally need to restock the basics. 

Well I was going to do this TAG no matter what I fell in love with the embossed image and it went from there. Thank you "friend" from ATL. 

I LOVE seeing everything Tim does in his tags I try to follow but I seem to have a Something Shining Syndrome .. And from there I find its nothing like his but takes on a life of its own. Art who knew it could be so fun. 

Here is how it started. Obsessed with stars right now, sorry it just went from there...... 

Now I really felt the need to use his Sticky embossing powder so I could use some gold foil.  (No white paint remember so had to go outside the box) 

Lucky I had a coin "Simplify" already distressed with white. No black paper either so I used black glitter tape. 

I used Tim's Sizzix star die to cut a large star then used one size smaller to cut the layers of this Star. 

Well I am so excited to have made this Tag and I now know this folder totally needs to make it in my stash. 🤗😉
