Here are some more cards using the extra scraps of the computer-generated 2012's I used last time. I had a hard time throwing the remnants away... Honestly, these cards aren't all that compelling but, you know... they can't all be winners. If we've learned anything from this year's 12 Tags of Christmas, that's it, right? I mean come on Tim - just because you have all that stuff at your disposal doesn't mean you have to use it all at the same time! Good grief!
Tangent - sorry...
I know, I'm supposed to be nice and friendly like every other happy blog out there. Can't seem to keep my damn mouth shut... or control my fingers.
OK, I can control my fingers. And my mouth. But where's the fun in that?
But seriously, looked like Santa barfed up his breakfast. I mean if Santa ate Ranger Industries for breakfast.
Anyway...
Naturally, I had to use the pick up truck. Since the Happy New Year stamp won't fit into the tailgate space, you'll have to use it on the inside of the card. But that's ok - you probably don't have anything to write inside anyway.
I love this background. The Leafy Stem was stamped over and over in various colors of Memento inks - just darker around the edges. It makes such a cool effect!
This one isn't computer generated - I drew the 2012 with a Sharpie. Then came the cool Deadbeat Designs background images, again in various Memento colors. Black Stickles over the 2012 and purple Stickles around the edges. Now I wish I had done this "2012" in rubber.
And don't worry too much about the mayor of Tag Town. He's laughing all the way to the bank!
OMG Mark, you are too funny! I love your commentary and your cards. LOL squared!

I couldn't imagine what the title of your post was all about until I read the line "I mean if Santa ate Ranger Industries for breakfast." I laughed out loud. . .You are really talented with your handwriting. That drawn 2012 on the last card is beautiful! BTW, I'll be posting another card I made with your tree stamp tomorrow. . .Best, Curt

Love the cards... your style is great! Oh, and the Mayor of Tag Town? Very cute. I just call him Tag Ho... Kinda says it all.
