July 2013 Tim Inspired Tag


Chalk up another tag for me & Grace!  My tag came out totally different from Tim's, which you can view here.  I decided to go big and bold with my die cut, so I used his Vintage Camera Sizzix Bigz die, where he went for the whole Fourth of July, patriotic thing using the American flag & stars.


I used one of his cash keys as an embellishment, and colored the crinkle ribbon with some Peeled Paint and a touch of Walnut Distress Inks.


I'll have to remember to take some photos of the process next time we make tags again.  This background technique was so much fun to do, and it looked awesome!


In honor of my old Nikon Action Touch camera I used to have years ago, I named this one "Micon" using Tim's little letters.


After coloring the grungeboard and adding the Crackle Paint, the pieces didn't quite fit into each other, so I just added some Black Soot Paint Dabber around the edges for a fun & funky look, and added some foam pop dots.
