Thank you all for following along on this journey - I found myself getting antsy while waiting to find out what the next day & tag would bring! There were so many fun and interesting techniques.

My favorite tag was #5. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI really cannot pick one tags since I thought they were all amazing. I learned somethings from the 12 tags of Christmas. I liked Tim w/ the melting pot & shrink plastic, it kind of reminded me some of Shrinky Dinks. : ) I found interesting what Tim did w/ the Santa pic by putting clear tape on it, cutting off the excess tape, & putting in warm water to get the paper off & just have the image on the tape. I really didn't know about doing that & some of the other things he did throughout the 12 tags. I just really learned a lot of things & enjoyed seeing all the tags Tim made & what others made. Thanks for giving us a chance to win a nice prize.
ReplyDeleteBrandy : )
No, I can't pick just one, they were all so amazing. Every one a different look with different techniques and products. Tim Holtz is one awesome dude!
ReplyDeleteThis tag is something unexpected!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite tag is the Day 4 snowman tag in cool icy blue...I just love the colour!
ReplyDeleteI love tag #10. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteI really think, it´s hard to choose a favorit, as they´re all so gorgeous and the man is a genius to design all new thing, and I just want to make them all LOL, but day 5 has to be my choise, if I have to pick one LOL.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Tim's tag is Day 7.Thanks for the chance )))
ReplyDeleteThis is by far one of my most favorite tags! I really loved the first day as well. Tim goes above and beyond each and every year. I look forward to his 12 tags of Christmas each year!
ReplyDeleteI think I'll still choose Day 4 as my favorite Tim tag.
ReplyDeletemaking the stamp pad with alcohol inks and felt was my favorite. thanks for the giveaways!
ReplyDeleteSo sad the 12 tags are already over. I love today's tag so much. Lots of mini details...awesome!!!
ReplyDeletemy fav tag of this year is tag 5, not specifically the tag, but the technique of creating old vintage tin - ish texture... I was so tickled when I tried that technique. Absolutely love the outcome.
Thank you for the extra change to win. That is so sweet!!!
I am sad its over too. I think I liked tag 2 the best and I liked the UTEE technique the best
