Have you seen Tim Holtz's October tag from the 12 Tags of 2012 series? I know it's been said before, but the possibilities truly are endless! Prepare to be wowed:
I love the details and techniques that go into this...luckily there are instructions and great photos from the making of the tag - check them out at Tim's blog and practice some of the techniques on your artwork!
Here's what Tim used:
To infuse your day with even more inspiration, here are two creations from members of our Simon Says Stamp & Show Design Team! This week, the Challenge is easy peasy - just pick Your Favorite and get crafty for a chance to win $50 to Simon Says Stamp!
Made by Ashli Oliver!
Ashli had this to say about her page:
I can't help it. I am totally in love. In love with patterns, especially tiny repeating patterns. Echo Park's Everyday Eclectic collection
has the perfect mix of whimsy, color, and of course pattern. For this
week's theme, I am putting all of these papers to work on this
photo-less layout that will be the cover page to my 2012 album. After
selecting my most favorite pattern for the background, I cut up the
journaling card sheet and layered those bits up with some messy-stitched
circles. My favorite Thickers and wood veneer accents finish off my layout that is filled to the max with my favorite patterns!

Made by May Flaum!
May says:
From distress inks to stenciling, playing with resist prodcuts to aging with rock candy
crackle I had an incredible time making this gift tag. Every single
piece on here is a favorite - including my techniques. One of my
favorite things right now is using stencils with a blending tool and distress ink - I love the color and all it adds to my projects.

I left her a comment to let her know.
