Tim's July Tag

Tim's July Tag, a photo by HikerCynthia on Flickr.

It's the beginning of the month so you know what that means, right?? TIM TAG TIME!!! Wooo hooooooo!!!!!!!!!

I had a BLAST making this tag!! The Alcohol Ink technique Tim Holtz demonstrated was SO. MUCH. FUN. Check it out here!

I basically followed Tim's recipe. I just used different colors and stamps. For the "metal" tags and embellishments, I just made the darn things because I don't have any! =D Check out that technique too!

Here's a rundown of all the stuff I used...in no particular order:

Alcohol Inks, Dabber Paints, Lumiere Paints, Memento Ink, Distress Stains, die cuts, corner rounder, twine, stamps, seam binding, paper distresser, VersaMark, embossing powder, glossy paper, cardstock, a tag and my trusty GlueGlider Pro.


I had stamped a tiny outline heart on the round embellishment and grabbed the heat gun to heat up the embossing powder...only to discover my faithful heat gun had died. I was so sad. So imagine the tiny heart up there and when I get a new gun, I'll put the tiny heart back on there, OK? ;-)



Peace, love, and Alcohol Ink happiness to you!
