You probably guessed by my title that I again got behind on this challenge... only 1 week - not so bad, lol. Pop on over to Linda's blog for all the details about this challenge series base on Tim Holtz's book Compendium of Curiosities. A MUST HAVE book!! Challenge #33 is altered metal alcohol inks and found on page 56. I used that technique on the heart and the staples (used my autographed tiny attacher that I won on Linda's blog - thanks, Tim & Linda). Challenge #32 is inking and stamping masks on page 59 and I used that technique for the background. Distress inks used - crushed olive, broken china, wild honey, victorian velvet, shabby shutters, faded jeans, rusty hinge. Alcohol inks - watermelon, sail boat blue.
You combines these two challenges beautifully Wanda. It turned out gorgeous and that stamp was a perfect choice.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous Wanda! I love the colors and stamping on your tag, and the altered metal looks great!
ReplyDeleteWanda, you combined the two challenge themes perfectly-- this is an utterly gorgeous tag! Your masking is perfect, and the altered metal heart is a lovely way to embellish it. Great background stamping, too, and the colors are so pretty and spring-y. Wonderful work!

ReplyDeleteFabulous tag! hmmm like the idea of using the AI on the staples.
ReplyDeleteI was scrolling down the thumbnails of the entries and yours shouted at me - this tag is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI was only thinking the other day, Tim should do coloured staples - derrr you've cracked it.
