I love to try my hand at the challenge each month to CASE the tag that Tim Holtz creates. I never feel as good about the finished product as I think I'm going to. Kinda like a diet--you always feel successful for about the first 4 hours. His tag this month is beautiful and very vintage. He based it on a walk down Main Street at Disneyland. I was raised 3 miles south of Disneyland, we moved there the year it was built. I, too, am still very enamored with the place. Every time I visit my mother in California we all have to go out on the front lawn to watch the fireworks at Disney. My mother still acts like its the first time they have ever done it. Amazing. Even after all the years I always run out there and stay until the Grand Finale at the end. So here's to the Magic Kingdom and lots of happy memories.

Sizzix die for the green leaves
