Tim's 12 Tags of Christmas - Day 4

So, today Tim is using facets - not something I've bought (yet!) so I had to use a fragment charm. I did have the alcohol inks though, but I had more trouble than last time I tried this technique, no idea why!

However, here is my tag

I used the same image from the seasonal stack as Tim, but had to improvise with my bling!  I did have some Prima bling which I used part of, but nothing like the bling on a roll Tim used! We don't have shops like that here!  So I raided my jewellery box for an old pearl necklace (not real, obviously!) I no longer wear, and used some of the beads, which I stuck onto a piece of ribbon.  They kept sticking to my fingers rather than the glue, hence the line is a tad wobbly!  I also used an old ear-ring - it is clear crystal, but obviously the light is bouncing off the tag and the background so it looks blue!  I put some glitter round the adage ticket - just because! and some extra bling on the fragment, for the same reason.   I am sure there will be lots more really clever versions over at Artyjen's splinter group - check them out!

I got out this morning to the shops - stocked up on the essentials, the pavements weren't as bad as I had feared, and the high street itself was quite good, so I got back without incident. Hope it doesn't all re-freeze overnight though. I was SOOO hot when I got home, too many layers - and the concentration of not falling, I think!   I have got to get to the hospital on Monday morning for the ECG (to make sure my heart murmur is not going to be a problem,) so I hope it continues to improve underfoot!  I just took some rubbish (garbage for any US readers) downstairs, to find a neighbour clearing my steps of the snow! ahh, makes you all warm and cosy, doesn't it! (Perhaps he thinks I am too old to do it myself, though...... never thought of that before!)

Anyhow, have a good evening - please, please, let Ann W get voted off Strictly tonight...... enough as they say, is enough!
