Another scheduled post, I am still away from my computer, I apologise again if I have not been able to visit you, we are on our last couple of days of our holidays in Scotland, with some very dear friends, internet time is limited, but I will hopefully get round to visiting soon.
I am sharing my Tim tag, which I have to say was quite a pleasure to make. You can seeTim's original version HERE. I am not going to go into detail as, apart from some words and picture changes, I have stuck pretty much to Tim's 'recipe'.
There were certainly a lot of elements in this month's tag, I was concerned it might look a bit overcrowded but I don't think it does after all!
I tried not to use the same elements and colours on mine. I envisioned the lady in the photo being a seamstress and tried to find elements to match that.
Sadly, I have not been able to get the new tiny Tattered Floral die yet, so I improvised and used the Tattered Floral Garland die. To finish off I added some of Tim's small talk stickers.
