be authentic....my Tim Tag for July

I can't believe it not even the middle of July and I am already posting my 
Tim Tag for the month! It's almost like I'm organized or something.
hahahahaha - ya, right!

Check out Tim's tag here - it's very patriotic!




I had to get a little creative because I didn't have the  same stamp set Tim used. 
So I starting flipping through my stamps and founf the sand dollar from the Mini Blueprints 6 set.
This was the first time I tried the new Distress Micro Glaze and I have to say that I love it!



I took me a couple of tries to decide on a colour combination that I liked but I finally settled on blues & greens. I kind of wished the colours turned out a bit darker but over all
 I'm still very happy with the result.
Who wants to go to the beach?!

Thanks for visiting my blog today!
