I'm hosting an Aussie version of this swap with permission from @Lucine

This year Tim Holtz is doing the 12 Tags of 2015. Let's challenge ourselves in 2015 and create our own Tim Holtz tags!

Follow the link to see the tag Tim has made, and a tutorial for it. Then, make a tag inspired by Tim's tag and the techniques used. Do not worry if you don't have all of the supplies he uses, the idea is to make a tag inspired by his, you do not have to follow the tutorial exactly. Send 1 tag to your partner inspired by Tim's tutorial.

12 Tags of 2015 - February

Enjoy making your own tag and trying some of the techniques that Tim teaches.

Size of your tag: #8 tag, which is 3 1/8" wide and 6 1/4" tall (or thereabouts)

Write your swap-bot name, date, etc on the back of the tag, in a similar way to the back of an ATC

Because we are starting in February, we've missed out on January. Here is the link for the January tag if anyone would like to make one to keep for themselves (this is what I will be doing so that I have a full set!)

Let's have FUN!

Just to clarify, we make the tag and send it to our partner right? I might have to make 2 because I want to have a full set of my own creations :)

Thanks for the motivation to make these tags ..... last years are still in the gunna box ! ie: blank tags

@Amira lol yes sorry edited to add in that we are to send 1 tag to our partners. I think I'll make 2 as well so I can keep 1 :)

@cafras I'm the same! I figure if I have to make it for a swap, then I'll make time to do it. This is my first year of them and I'm super excited :)

Another quick question, what material can we make the tag out of if I don't have a #8?? Do I need to buy manilla folders? Can I use cereal box (its what I use for ATC's)? Going to work on this tag today!!xxA

I love step 16- create a heart charm....WT!! (LOL) this is where I am boggled!! my stash is lacking in this department!!

I agree! Here I was thinking I had some metal charms lying around... guess not lol. This swap was a challenge for me, but I really enjoyed it. I hope others feel the same way :)
