Oh my what a fun tag... I started out disappointed because I did not have that fabulous silhouette stamp set that Tim used ( I love it it's on my wish list). Trip to the Queendom archives... I found my awesome fall stamp set, I think it is TPC Studio ( not sure it's lost it's outer wrapper). OH NO , I did not have some of the stains either (darn that Tim for using such cool colors that you just think you gotta have them all... I used what I had crushed olive, mustard seed, spiced marmalade, fired brick distress stains; mustard seed, weathered wood, wild honey distressing inks... wow , a pretty palette!
I had those cool mixed media stamps...I felt like a "big girl artist" using those. I love these stamps,
they add so much to your project. I don't know what the twine looking string was, I pulled it from my stash but it separates and was easy to colorize just like the paper twine Tim used. See I CAN use what I have to make a cool tag and be please with it too!! For all my fans that think I own everything Tim Holtz ever made... NOT ( not to say I wouldn't like to own every thing) ! I DO have a rather LONG wishlist . Even I have come to realize I can't have everything, but it sure is fun to dream !! More importantly I'm learning how to use the things I've bought... Thanks Tim !
Hi Rea,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely tag and I think you did a great job with the crafting stash you had to hand.
I bet like me you wish you had access to Tim's craft room?
