Tanda Teaser 205 - January

Happy New Year everyone. Gosh 2013 a 1980's film still seems modern! Thank you all for your beautiful chilly colours in response to Sue's December Challenge. I'm afraid I've been a bit slack recently not just here but on the crafting front generally, you'll see my new years resolution on my January page. The page is my sample for this month's challenge which is JANUARY.

The first month of the year you might still be making calendars or maybe you follow the Zodiac, January's signs are Capricorn and Aquarius. It can be anything you want it to be so long as it reflects the overall theme of January.

For my calendar page I've used Capricorn from one of the Tanda Zodiac sets, and the pocket watch from Tanda's Background set 1. This challenge runs until the first Wednesday in February when Sue will be back to tease you with something new.

There are no restrictions on what you use, you do not to have to use Tanda stamps - you don't have to be a stamper either, just use whatever you have in your stash in whatever style you fancy! Please link back to your entry and not your blog....sometimes it is really hard to find your entries. If you could link back to the Tanda Blog to that would be great!

We would love to come and check out your creations! If you do not have your own blog - check out the Tanda Stamp Forum. There is a Gallery and section for people to do the challenge Forum based!
