Compendium of Curiosities Challenge- week 33

Well I have finally done the Challenge this week that Linda at Studio L3 chose for us on Monday. I don't know where the time went but there is a lot of colored metal around here. I decided my book wouldn't be complete without the bird cage so that is what I used. I also used the technique on the bird, dragonfly and chain. The background paper is from Webster's Pages.I love this technique and use it often.

Tim Holtz - 12 tags of Christmas- 2007- #9

Here we are with tag#9 for 2007. This was a pretty easy one as I had all the pieces. It is never too late to join in and you don't need to make the tags with a Christmas theme. If you decide to play, link your tag to "Inkin It Up" where Kathy has a place for us to link up.

They are saying it might snow today and already a few flakes have fallen. This is not normal for February. I hope you have a great weekend and Thank you for looking!

Tim Holtz - 12 tags of Christmas- 2007- #8

Here is my tag 8 for my challenge with Kathy Eddy at "Inkin It Up". Had to use a different stamp and for the embellishment I painted a little plastic sled. It is so frosty today that you could probably use a sled. Thank you for looking!

Just For Fun-Week 3

This is for the Just for Fun Challenge - "wings of a bug". It is just an idea that stuck in my head when I looked at these little girl images from Lisa's Altered Art. The background is made from a couple of Webster's Pages. I made the words using an alphabet stamp from Scroll's Work Stamps.

Compendium of Curiosities Challenge- week 32

Sadly our amazing journey with Linda at Studio L3 will soon be over. I have had so much fun participating in these challenges - meeting new friends and being inspired by SO much amazing ART! Linda has been the most fantastic leader that you could ever hope for. The sponsors have all been incredibly generous. For week 32 I knew I had to start work on the cover for the album I am making to keep all my samples in. A while ago I found a wooden album that looks like a book (at the thrift store for $1.50). It has a oval glass frame on the front and that is where this piece will be going. I made a foam A to use as a stamp and the A mask from Tim's set. The shape is from his Styled Labels Die. All of the stamps are TH. The letters are from an SU die. The background is a piece of rusted enamel. Too easy but I am happy with how it turned out.
