I have had no time to participate in Tim's Tags this year, but I did want to share a book I have been putting together the last few weeks. It's along the same lines as my Halloween book where I put together some of my favorite holiday art that I have created and received (from some amazing artists I may add).
So I want to start off by thanking all the artists that have contributed to this book by sending me some of their beautiful Christmas creations over the past few years :
Robin Woodard (cover), Sarah Hemphill, Jacqueline de Groot, Lynn Stevens,
Nancy Maxwell James and Kris Dickinson.
This gorgeous Christmas card I received from Robin Woodard graces the cover.
I collaged the inside cover and then added a mini paper bag which I decorated with this lovely tag sent by Sarah Hemphill. Since Sarah and I both share some German roots, I really adore this tag.
I covered the opposite side of the paper bag and inserted inside of it tags I made last year for Tim's 12 Tag of Christmas.
I then cut out two plastic sleeves from my ATC holders and added some of my
favorite Christmas ATC's I made.
The Christmas arch I included here was one I received from Nancy Maxwell James. I placed it in a plastic sleeve and backed it with a card from 7 Gypsies.
Another gorgeous arch, this one sent to me by Kris Dickinson.
Opposite that I collaged a bingo tag.
I'm thrilled to have one of Jacqueline's grid cards to add to my book.
Opposite that is a large pocket envelope which I decorated with yet another one of my tags for Tim's tags last year.
From the large envelope you can pull out a wonderful Christmas tag created by Lynn Stevens.
The next page I added was a smaller envelope which contains one of Jacqueline's lovely tags.
My final two papes are the back of the envelope to which I added one of my
house-shaped ATC's.
The inside of the back cover was then collaged by me.
So happy to have this incredible collection of artwork to grace my coffee table this Christmas!
