Here is my tag for Grungy Monday #13 where Linda has us playing with Adirondack Alcohol Inks. Follow this link to watch Tim's excellent video. I have used a piece of gold paper for my tag and a piece of acetate; both have been embossed with Sizzix (TH Alterations) clocks folder. I used expresso. stream, pesto, rust and black Adirondack inks and blending solution. On the inside of the acetate I used antique gold perfect pearls mixed with water. All of the metal pieces have been inked with alcohol inks. The words I stamped with Archival ink are from Scrolls Work.
Thank you for looking!
Okay maybe this week I can play. The roof is done and I quit my "maid" job. I made this tag while I was supposed to be making Birthday cards. Four of the women on my road (including me) have their birthdays in June. A lot of Gemini's. I am entering this in 3 places ; Grungy Monday we are to use distress inks; Simon Says Stamp and Show we are to make a tag ; and Just for Fun has the theme "With my little eye".
I used Tim's fabulous distress inks for my background and for stamping the words and leaves. I used archival black by Ranger for stamping the images. Face by Rubber Stampede, flowers by Stampin Up, Be, Swirl and Bee by See D. Wings and words are Tim Holtz. I used a gold gel pen to outline some of the images and it didn't scan the color it really is. C'est la vie.
Thank you for looking!
I made this tag to wish you all a Happy Easter and for Grungy Monday where Linda has us following Tim's inspiration with Texture Fades and Distress. I have used a flourish Sizzix Alterations folder for the tag and Halloween words embossing folder for the Happy Easter letters. I used victorian velvet distress ink. The letters were embossed and the tag mounted on TH / Ranger core dinations paper. I tattered the edges and added a bit of snowcap white paint. The ribbon is TH and the image is from my stash. You can check out Tim's video here.
Thank you for looking!
