Description:

Tim Holtz's February 2013 tag is ready to view. Since we don't know exactly when each tag will be posted, my plan is to start a swap as soon as I know the new month's tag is posted and will give us all about 3-4 weeks to easily complete a really well done tag. Remember that by the end of the year, you'll want 12 tags that you love and want to display in some way. SO, make a tag that you'd really like and that meets Tim's vintage, shabby chic, grunge, steam punk style.

Remember that the tag he creates is just a starting point to get your own creative juices awakened! Also,you don't have to use only his products on your tag--I find numerous substitutes from flea markets, E-Bay, and re-sale shops that are much less expensive and more genuinely vintage and shabby. In December my daughter told me that Tim gets most of his inspirations and original ephemera from E-Bay which I didn't know! I've been right up there with Tim himself looking for vintage ephemera on EBay!

This is the LINK to the February tag. You need not copy his tag completely, but keep close enough to the methods and concepts that your partner will recognize it as the February 2013 Tim Tag. Challenge yourself to try a new technique or medium he uses so that we all expand our creative skills and imaginations and understanding of how various media can be used. Please PM me if you have any questions or problems. This is pretty much sender's choice, but sometimes we may be able to use a partner's preferences for colors, special interests, amount of bling, grunge, steam punk, etc. in making our tags. I love Tim's style but am not wholly into full blown steam-punk and a lot of bling, for example.

OPTIONAL: Remember to post a photo of your tag on Tim's blog before the end of the month to be entered to win prizes and just to let people all over see your great work! If you win, PLEASE let all of us know and give us the link to your tag!

Let's have fun doing these and "knock the socks off" your partners when they receive their tags!

Please share your completed ATC's on our Tim Holtz Addicts flickr group.
