Tim Holtz TWELVE TAGS OF 2015--OCTOBER

At 7 a.m. Oct. 1, Tim Holtz posted this message with his October Tag::
“i love halloween time for all sorts of reasons: the changing of the weather, the frightful decorations, the nostalgic memories of my childhood, and of course the candy.  this month i wanted to share a tutorial showing you just how easy it is to create one of my favorite new dimensional halloween dies from sizzix – the zombie!  these dies are so cool and have endless possibilities from cards to party decor, but before we get to the tutorial, check out this video i did with scrapbook.com showing you how it’s done (don’t miss the other videos including this studio tour).  i hope this tag conjures up your creative spirits from regions beyond…t!m”

Clearly, this month's tag involves a zombie mask and other such details—perfectly made for any of our group who love this kind of Halloween fun. As you know from my PM sent to everyone in the group, this is not my kind of Halloween nor that of several of our group members who contacted me to say they would not participate this month for that reason.. However, NEVER think I don't cheer you on to have your fun with this amazing tag. If you don't have and cannot buy or borrow the die he uses for this zombie mask, you'll need to get your creative juices flowing to come up with another “mask” that is similarly “spooky Halloween fun.” You can get to his tutorial by clicking HERE.

The sign up deadline for this swap is October 23 (Friday). The completion and send deadline is November 4 (Wednesday). This is a bit shorter turn around time caused by my delay in deciding how to handle the two factions we may have about this tag. If you like his zombie tag, I want you to run with it and let yourself loose to enjoy every minute, especially if you have to come up with your own”zombie” style mask for your tag. Please sign up as soon as possible since you can start making your tag even before you know your send-to partner.

Let me know if you have any questions, problems, confusions, etc.!
