Time has been twisting the knife
Please don't analyse
The things that I know
Nobody told me
Take my hand
Lead me to some peaceful land
Give me something to believe in
I am frightened for my soul

I created this for Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of 2016 - June challenge.

I mimicked Tim's steps to create my tag, but I made mine somewhat differently than his.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.16.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

Because my artwork is digital, and Tim Holtz's challenge is intended for people who buy his products, I don't usually post my tags on his site. I originally planned on not posting to his challenge anymore, due to lack of comments from other participants, but someone else said they rarely receive comments either.
