time to be enabled by Tim Holtz with his fab 12 Days of Christmas Tags! Time to get your pen and paper out and add to that WISH list. Tim's Day 1 Tag featured the cool Rickety House Die - just love all the different tags he should using this house die. Not having the die, a girl has to improvise and add to her wish list - right! So taking inspiration from Tim, here's what I came up with:

The Background was created with Broken China, Tumbled Glass and Stormy Sky Distress Inks, snowflakes are stamped in Broken China. I added Glossy Accents and SU's Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to add the "snow" to the snowman. The ticket stamps is from Tim's 100th Collection, I inked in versamark, colored with markers then clear embossed to get the finished look, then sponged on Walnut Stain Distress Ink. Tim's Day 2 Tag shows how he custom makes the ink pads to get this look - I'll be back later today with my version of Day 2!

Funny thing about the house die, is that I was not going to buy it and then did! Now that I have seen what Master Tim shared, so glad I did!! Love your improvised tag! So cool! Hope Lou is almost back to normal!
Wow, fabulous tag, love that background and your snowman is beautiful, cute embellishments too. Excellent work.
Hi Lisa~
What a great combination of materials! I really like how the snowman has the word wish cut out of it. The added charm is great! I really like the whole thing! It goes to show that we can really stack technique over technique!
Thanks so much for sharing with us!

....and this worked out just snow-onderful!
Your tag is wonderful Lisa! Seems most of us were about improvising on day 1.
Love your tag Lisa, I don't have this die and now want it, typical LOL. Love love the addition of the heart. Tracy Evans x x
Terrific tag Lisa, love your interpretation. Annette x
such a great tag and we can always add to our wish list. Great colors and love the sparkle!
Fabulous tag! Love the distressed background and the ticket and snowman and everything... :) Wonderful take on the day 1 tag!
This is cool, i love how the word fits into the snowman, very clever :D
Oh lisa, how I understand your comments! I tried to "guess" what Tim might use -- and never even guessed he would use the rickety house die! It is now on the way to me! I keep hoping AC Moore will get these things in and I can use a coupon. I am not sure how much longer I can hold out! Tonight is when I can work on the tags for Day One and Two. I do not even have the snowman die! We are all going to be broke. And your tag is beautiful.
Really clever how the quote forms part of the snowman, love this tag Lisa.
