Tag booklet complete - the backside

I finished this baby fast.

You can see the start and additions of the booklete here and here.

I was making the tags and the majority are mixed media

and therefore, a lot of bleeding going on the backside.

Therefore, a solution was required more or less.

I was still out on the fence because mixed media is supposed

to messy, however.

There's messy cool and messy messy.

So my pals Holli and Brooke convinced me that maybe the

backside needed some cover.

(as if a normal scrapper couldn't figure that one out)

LOL.

 

I could've covered with mixed media and/or plain ole

pattern paper.

Where's the fun in that. 

So....I decided that embellishing would be 

great fun and it was.

Not necessarily in any particular order because blogger

is a pain in the ass about that.

Heaven forbid they actually upload in the order

I went to great pains to do.

But I digress.....It turned out to be a lot of fun

and I did all the pages in one night

and doesn't that prove the fun.

Using a bit of this and that from PebblesWoodland Forest.

That paper bad is soooo cool and I felt it

complimented the mixed media I was using on

the tags.

Got to use a lot of stash.

I think the deer is Bo Bunny but I can't swear to it.

I have a bad habit of tossing packages and

tossing everything into one tub.

Sadly, my head is like I can remember it and

my memory is like - yeah no.

It was a great play and I got brave and started

splatting some mists and nuvo around.

I love that lady - it's TH - a stamp and die.

OOOOO and I love those fauna and flowers

and decided that the bold colors

would be rather pretty.

I love that sentiment.

Love the Christmas cheer and I think I 

need to add a few splats as I look

at this photo.

I got to use some washi tape.

I have issues with using it - it just doesn't look right

when I plop it down.

This actually worked out.

Love my tag booklet and I'll be making a few more.

For some reason I flung out a lot of creativity

that I would normally stifle on other projects

because I have a set thing in my head

that screams you can't do that.

Well I did it.

And I'm gonna do it again.

Happy New Year!

 

Tags for my Tag booklet....

I love creating these tags and this booklet.

It's almost full.

Shocking I know!

It appears that it's mostly the grandkids and

they always take a great photo.

I love using the oxides to make the tags colorful

and different.

I have also loved using my die cuts. Since my pal

Holli picked up a sidekick for me and I find

I use my small dies a lot more than I used to.

And I can do layers.

I love layers.

I adore layers.

And who doesn't.

The santa appears to have run-a-muck with the beard thing

but I'm gonna let it go because well why not.

It's let's shall we say - funky and

works with the background.

I love the stamp for the coffee and my

darling sweet hubby LOVES his coffee - he roasts

our coffee and yes he does decaf for me.

That's true love.

We do have coffee twice a day (Tom more than one cup)

I sticked to 2 cups a day because it's not like

decaf revs me up - but I like the "having coffee."

Love this photo and it goes so well with backgrounds.

Remember that mesh stuff??? I have a few

colors left and I forget what it's called but it's cool or

it was back in the day.

I actually found that "dream" in my stash and have

no clue where it came from.

And the gear as a tag enforcer.

Love it.
