Well I used a lil Sizzix snowman and I didn't have a snowflake embossing folder so I embossed snowflakes onto a piece of Vellum for a snowy look.

Tim's 12 Tags of Crimbo 2010 Tag 9

Tag 9:
This one was a quickie! Music paper with lots of Distress inks and a rosette flower with a gold chenille pipe cleaner for tinsel. I used a QuicKutz die for the letters and a Sizzix star all glittered in gold. This was the first time I coloured some of Tim's ribbon with Distress ink and I loved the effect!

Tag 8: This one was the one I was most pleased with!
I don't have a sleigh stamp or mask so I used Tim's car and Stampotique's Gobby Lin to fly over the town with a Hero Arts cloudy stamp background!

I used Distress Inks to colour the canvas like Tim did and cut it with the tattered Florals die and the Leaf die. I used a Hero Arts Woodgrain Stamp for the background:

Tag No 6 and the only thing I had that Tim used was his Christmas Washi tape!
I improvised with another of his Sizzix Texture Fades Patchwork and a Sizzix Star die with some Grungeboard stars from Tim's range- all glittered with 3dJean's Glitter Glass, Sizzix Branch cut with sticky canvas

Tag 5:
So I don't have a Santa stamp to my name so the Lovely Pirate's Life Bombshell was a great stand in (and her legs are better than Santa's!!) No holly stamps so QuicKutz and Distress stickles instead and Waltzing Mouse Christmas Sentiments

Bombshell DT Girls FIGHTING.......

....for your vote!!!
The Bombshell DT girls were challenged to design a project using the very first set of Bombshell Stamps they ever owned and it's up to YOU to vote for your favourite HERE!!!





I have a fab lady here in England, 3dJean who is dead arty and luckily runs her own lil online shop.
One day she advertised that she had some new stamps in stock 'Bombshells'.
Well I've never been a cutesy stamps girl- no bunnies in bonnets for me, so when I saw the Bombshells i was in LOVE!!!
This was December 2008 and I asked my lovely 'DH' if he could possible get me a set for Chrissy that year.
That was how I came to own Retro Cowgirls :D 

I love my Bombshell Stamps and was so excited to be chosen as a Guest DT member in 2009 and then a full time member later that year!

I work for a gorgeous boss who loves tattoo art and caters to those of us who want something MORE than cute for our cards and crafts!
I am part of a team with the most talented bunch of wenches in the crafting hemisphere- I tell you they scare me into trying harder and harder!!! :D 

My card is a little kitsch, she's an old fashioned cowgirl working down on the farm in her plaid yet still looking drop-dead gorgeous and ready to kick a lil butt with those sexy boots!!!

So show your love for the Bombshells and vote for the one that tickles your fancy most!!



Love GlitteryKatie
