Studio L3's Grungy Monday #18 takes us back to 2009 with Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of Christmas...{day 8} techniques. There were several great techniques rolled into this one tag. Instead of Christmas, I took mine in a Halloween direction. I'm also entering this in Simon Says Stamp & Show: A Tag, because, well...it's a tag!
I'm scooting in at the last few moments, so I'm skipping the details tonight, but be sure to check out Tim's blog...he details it out much better than I could anyway!
