Tim Times Ten Grand Giveaway Challenge -Day 8


  The challenge for us today over at  Stampin' Dymonz Creative Space is to make a distressed tag using at least 3 colors, a sentiment stamped in more than one color, a stamped image and a unique ribbon or embellishment. I  was thinking about my neighbors who are flying off to Paris for 2 months, when I made this tag. I want to make some kind of album for her to fill when she gets back. I have used victorian velvet, aged mahogany, walnut stain and fired brick distress inks. Most images are done with jet black archival ink. All of the stamps are Tim Holtz. I dyed and curled the ribbon.


Thank you for looking!

Tim Times Ten Grand Giveaway Challenge -Day 7


  For Challenge # 7 over at Stampin Dymonz Creative Space we are creating an acetate tag with a wintry feeling. The recycled acetate must be dry embossed and inked. The tag must be 2 layers, include an image and we must use some type of dimensional product to embellish. My image is from Art Impression which I stamped on black card stock and then painted over with white acrylic - wiping off the paint from the embossing after it had mostly dried. I dry embossed part of the tag with the TH snowflake folder.I decorated my snowman with distress stickles. I made a concoction of dry snow, glue. and Ranger lace stickles and spread it sparingly on the tag and on the embossed snowflakes (TH folder) of the acetate. I added some blue with a permanent marker. I sprayed the acetate with glimmer mist (Delta). I applied rock candy stickles to the card stock as well. Well by then I knew it was time to stop. I glued it together, added some ribbon and stamped the message (SU)on top  and edged with white acrylic paint. The scan doesn't show how sparkly it is.
I am glad it isn't snowing here.  Thank you for looking!
