Joy to the World

Merry Merry Christmas!!!!!  Finally getting a minute to sit down, relax and visit crafty blogland.  And what a way to celebrate this marvelous day than with my take on Tim Holtz's December 2015 tag.  Wow!  Tim never ceases to inspire me to create.  Love his latest tag.  Check out a step-by-step tutorial here on Tim's blog.


My tag is a little different from Tim's.  I used Tim's Holiday Greens dies to cut some thin metal sheets from Spellbinders.  Some of the foliage was colored with alcohol ink and some got a little Picket Fence Distress Stickles treatment.


The pieces were arranged around a thin bangle bracelet to form the wreath. 


 As many of you know, I don't sew.  So I grabbed some embroidery floss and whip stitched the edges.  By the way ... love Tim's new snowflake stencil.

 I sincerely hope you having a marvelous Christmas.   May God's blessings and peace be with each of you during the holidays and throughout the New Year.

Hugs to you all -- Mary Elizabeth
