Tree Tag - Tim Holtz 12 Tags of Christmas

Here is my version of Tim's day 4 tag which had a snowman on it.  I don't have the snowman die so I used PTI's tree die instead.  I cut it out twice with Grungepaper and glued them together then used Tim's snowman techniques on it.
For the tag base I used one of the #8 manila tag like Tim did.  I used his technique to do the background except I used Distress INK instead of Distress STAINS for the blues and did use the Pickett Fence STAIN.  The result was a bit different.   My tree didn't stand out enough from the tag so I inked the edges with Frayed Burlap.   Here is Tim's tag:
