My Grange Fair Projects

So for the annual Grange Fair, I decided to do a bit of papercrafting.  I am also entering these into the Simon Says Stamp Summer Holidays Childrens Challenge.  I made these two tags-all of recycled materials.

The first one, Imagine, I used the lid from a tomato container to make the daubered cover.  I inked the letters with Black Soot Distress ink, used perfect pearls Forever Blue and Forever Red, and then applied 2 coats for UTEE. 

The second one was made from old magazines from around the house.  I ripped the pieces from magazines and put them together to make the tree shape.  I stamped dream with my trusty changeable stamp set.
Renew, Reuse, Recycle!!

Grungy Monday 7: Color Blocking

For Grungy Monday 07 I've created this bright tag.  This is a technique from Tim Holtz.  I used my favorite gear and robot stamps and  lots of different inks.  Of course I added embossing because that's the best! 

Tim Holtz Distress Stains

My family and I are really into crafting.  Right now, we really love TIM HOLTZ.  You should check out his products and his blog at http://www.timholtz.com/.  Check out my video to see how I've used some of the newest products available.  I should have dried the tag again after I added the lines, because the distress powder sticks to any wet spots.  Make sure you dry your tag really well before you stamp the butterfly.
