http://lindaledbetter.com/2014/06/compendium-of-curiosities-3-challenge-4.html she's made it so easy ... all the details are right there. What a treat the CC3 Crew has some more amazing projects for you to see too ( I'm glad we don't have to pick winners! Let's see this is challenge #4 so our sponsors are http://www.thefunkiejunkie.com/ The Funkie Junkie Boutique.
Seriously ... I do hope you've gotten your book Tim's A Compendium of Curiosities Volume III, I can't stress enough how valuable this book is. You do need it to follow along with the challenges; but it is also a great resource... especially if you are like me and get excited about a technique and then forget how to do it :)
So you know I'm not going to give you techniques right ??! ... this challenge technique is Layering Stencil: Texture Paste found on page 49 ... let's go !!
It's so much fun to pull out my Tim toys. I chose to do a tag ... it was supposed to be a card but I changed my mind as I pulled out my supplies. So I'm using three of my stencils harlequin, stars and dot fade ( if you look close you'll be able to see all of them on my tag. And since I used my distress mini for my June Tim tag I decided to use them for this tag as well I used set #1 ( I only own two sets right now but hope to own more in the near future)... they are so cool to use with the stencils. And let's see I used two of my stampers anonymous sets ; stuff to say ( for the sentiment) and classic favorites #4 ( for one of the heads), and I used the botanical remnant rubs. For my embellishments I pulled some flowers from my Queendom stash and some mini brads that I colorized to make them look vintage with some broken china distress paint. I struggled with a design as I wasn't feeling creative this week ( that's the reason I went for the tag instead of a card ... I can use it for a bookmark)
it is fun to experiment! That's it for now... see you next time ! Oh my June Tag for 12 Tags of 2014 will be up soon too !
This tag is lovely, Rea'! I love the way the stenciled texture paste sort of spills from top left to bottom right. Your pretty soft colors are perfect. Very cool!! Thanks for entering it for CC3C!!
