So had to use the Owl Buddies (simply stamps) that I love so much and try hard not to ink anything other than the branches.... distress ink covers a multitude of sins!
I didn't take step by step photos again today, either, (too busy coughing) but following Tim's instructions
I didn't have the seasonal salvage stickers so cut a piece from the seasonal stack which just happen to match! and stuck it to some grungepaper. I thought the next size up would be too big but looking at it now, this one is quite tiny, so maybe my first thought would have been best. Made a tissue tape flower (great video, Tim!) and a button from my stash matched the colours I've used.
I had real fun doing today's tag, I wonder what tomorrow will bring?!
The cold itself is a bit better today, but the cough is as bad, and so I didn't want to go out in the cold again today, so have stayed home. I will have to go out tomorrow, though as I am running out of milk and need some other basics from the shops, so I hope the pavements improve a bit overnight - we still have several inches of snow outside my flat, (and my icicles are growing nicely!!) but they are talking about black ice overnight and I don't want to fall over (like last year!)

Lovely tag Helen.
Love your tag :)))
Keep warm, as it is bitter out there.. I know been out on my sledge!! lol
Fantastic tag, love your take on it. Afraid my COP is back again, so with best of intentions haven;t managed today, but meds back up to high levels, so hoping to catch up in a couple of days.
Gorgeous tag Helen. Love your take on it. It's so lovely to see how everyone does a little (or a lot!) in such a different way.

Ohhh this is pretty. I do believe this is my favorite Tim tag so far. I'm going to play today and get mine done, So glad the lace came in handy. I hope you feel better soon.
Maybe you can have a neighbor pick you up some milk and such, you shouldn't go out in the cold being sick!
Lynn is right you shouldn't go out with that cold Helen, definitely have to lasso a neighbour.
I love your tag and all the improvisations. You may have forgot to outline the bird, so did I and I forgot to put the blessed wing in.............its no fun being senile believe me.......lol
Take care and keep warm. Annette xx
Very nicely done! I think the stanp works just as nicely!
Great tag, I do love that tissue tape idea for a flower, I must have a go. Take care in the snow, it's certainly very slippy underfoot up here, where 1cm ish of snow fell earlier on icy pavements - nasty!
Another lovely tag Helen, well done with the flower - I really struggled with this bit. I wouldn't go out if you don't need to - very slippy pavements x
Hi Helen, love your Tag....I had to cut into my paper stash for this one too! S x
