Tim's tags from start to finish- 2008-#6


  Yeah we are halfway through our TH Christmas Tags from start to finish for year 2008. Mine is quite different from Tim's this time but I did use his alcohol ink and acetate technique. My images are from a Stampin Up rub ons sheet. The words are printed on cotton. I used distress inks- tumbled glass, stormy sky and broken china; alcohol inks - black, red pepper, cranberry and expresso; and white acrylic paint; and a music background from River City Rubber Works. Check out who is playing at "Inkin it Up".


Today is "April tools Day" where I live. Participants are given limited materials and time to build a boat that they then race. The crowd always hopes for the boats to sink. Good fun!


Thank you for looking!
