Tim's 12 tags of 2012!- March and using it on a a LO

Another fabulous tag of fun from Tim!! His tag for March
So to start off...I didn't have the woodgrain stamp, so I inked my tag in various colors, then I stamped Tim's flourish stamp with Picket Fence stain...Love that stuff!
I wanted to use my tag...so I used the "Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass but learning to dance in the rain." stamp. I actually had a picture I had taken and this was the exact quote I wanted to use before I even got the stamps!! I stamped that on the tag in Festive berries and then took my Prisma colored pencils to color in the holes in the letters and the open spots in the font, then I added some shadowing to the letters with a fine tipped marker. For my mosaic piece I didn't have the butterfly die so I hand cut a cloud out of grunge and then for my embossing since I didn't have cement I used Enamelware on it. Glossy accented the mosaic pieces. I love the Tim flowers and I used Tammy Tutturow's technique on them! I also added rain drops and glossy accented them. For the Crumpled ribbon I used Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade and Barn door stains. So here is the final tag.
(Sorry for all the extra area around the tag...I tried to Photoshop it and it changed the size of the tag.) Remember you can click on the image to get it bigger!

So then as I said I wanted to use my tag on a page so here's the page, using a scrapbook Generation sketch.

and a close up of the corner embellie...using Tim's Ticket and a rolled rose (MFT) on a Spellbinders scalloped circle.

TFL!!
