Tags of 'Crafty Individuality' 10 Inspired by Tim Holtz

Well only one day left then the Tim Holtz 12 Tags of Christmas 'frenzy' will come to an end for another year. Here's my tag number 11, using three of my favourite Crafty Individuals stamps. It's not easy to see the embossed 'snow' on the acetate overlay on the pic above, but below shows it up much better.

The beautiful Angels are from CI-169......oh I just LOVE 'em! The photo's don't show up the colouring on the angel image, sorry, I had lost the light when I finally got time to take the photo's.

The resist technique on the background of the tag is from CI-116 crackle background, and the word from CI156. Thanks for looking and especially for all the positive comments. I know my tags are not anything like Tim's but it is from him that I gained the inspiration. I just enjoy doing my own thing!!!!!!
