Tim Holtz Twelve Tags of 2015: July Tag

TIM'S INTRO TO JULY'S TAG:

“ahh summer…the longer days, hot weather, vacation adventures, and celebrations we have this time of year.  the 4th of july holiday is one of my favorites and a time to show gratitude for this country and embrace the celebration of our independence day.  it was certainly my inspiration for this month’s tag, and i love that creativity gives us the opportunity to express ourselves in such unique ways.  i hope you take some time this month to do something creative with whatever inspires you.  after all, that’s what makes the world we live in so amazing…t!m “

PLEASE DON'T LET THESE SUPPLIES AND TECHNIQUES KEEP YOU FROM MAKING THIS TAG! I do have a template for a steaming mug of coffee which I think would be a fine replacement of the carry out coup. I can email a copy of that template if you contact me with you email address. As usual, you will make your version of Tim's tag for ONE partner. Be certain to make the tag enough like his as possible or use it as a jump start for your own creativity for this June tag. Your tag MUST have enough similarity to Tim's that your partner can easily tell it is a version of the official June tag.

(1) So, 1 tag, sent to 1 partner. (2) SIGN UP by July 18

Do your BEST work with the supplies you have to come close to his tag. DO NOT feel you MUST BUY supplies exactly as he lists them. I do not want that to keep people from joining these monthly tag swaps. Substitute, jury-rig , and use creativity to make good use of what supplies you DO have to come close by giving it your best efforts. Tim Holtz does not not use stickers, so we will not use stickers on our tags. He does use some rub-ons and a limited amount of, and very few, alpha stickers and things such as tags, tickets, etc. In all other ways, stickers are not allowed for these tags. PLEASE DO PM me with any questions about this swap or ideas for other swaps that are not tags.
