12x12 Sneak peek...

Here's a sneak peek of a 12x12 layout I've been working on for a publication submission. Unfortunately due to the fact I want to submit it, you can't view the whole thing. but here is a sneak peek using the August Kit of the month ADD ON!! :)

MVL Link Up - Get Inked

I'm a fan of tats.. and a fan of color.. I've got 25 stars on my arm, 6 of which are bright colored with a gradient of the rainbow. The other 19 are just black outlines. 

I feel like Mary Vogel Lozinak's Images are just the perfect "stick it to the man" type of characters. 

I used 

Mary's Owl In Vest - 2x3

and I put him in the

Mason Jar - 2.25x3.75

for this bad boy!! 

be sure to link up your own project using Mary Vogel Lozinak's images from Viva Las Vegastamps! -- you have until tomorrow night, check out the VLVS! Blog for any specifics on giveaways :) LOTS up for grabs!

My Creation:

Quick note about the background : I used Miracle Tape from VLVS! to stripe .. then dumped embossing powder on the tag.. it sticks to the double sided tape which makes for beautiful stripes! Heat with a gun and viola!!

I have also managed to base my tags off of Linda (The Funky Junkie)'s 12 tags! So I will be linking up there each day :) Today's is linking to tag 2 -- Mostly I took inspiration from her handmade flower and the variety in textures that she used! I've got rough cardstock, plastic netting, smooth satin... it's a super fun tag to hold!

Thanks for stopping by!! You're on your way to Susan's Blog next!!!
