Tags of 2016 - January

happy January !  Love TH tags every month.  They are a good diversion from busy days and I enjoy getting to be creative.  

I didn't have most of the supplies for this tag so improvised a bit and I started tags in 2014 so techniques are new to me.  I must confess I went and bought the stamp just for this tag.  Shhhh

Honestly tried the chalkboard technique 6 times and had poor results. So after 2 sheets of black 12 x12 card stock.(boo) and distressed finger tips :),  I went to plan b. 

I took purple card stock and sprayed lightly with picket fence distress spray and Heidi swapp tinsel spray before stamping the birthday hat stamp and black emboss powder. after the heating process, I colored the card stock with white chalk.  Love the pop of color with the embossed foil. Attached the ' Good Times' sentiment from the alpha parts to tie in the clocks. 

Thanks for stopping by!
