In February Tim Holtz is revisiting Stencil monoprinting and embossed paste.
I followed his step by step but I had to be creative with the embellishments.
For the monoprint I used a linen texture stencil with Antique Linen, Scattered Straw and Walnut DIs and instead of Tim Hearts stencil I used a Circle stencil with Tumbled Glass DI.
I applied paste with a chicken wire stencil (Crafters' Workshop) and embossed in Wow gold EP.
The photo on the tag is a fake... I used glossy photo paper but I actually stamped the image (Nostalgic Couples by Rubber Dance ). I coloured it with DI as per Tim's step by step though...
The tag is from a set by Crafty Individuals (CI-428), embossed, coloured and cut out.
I created the arrow from 2 cardboard die-cut arrows (Sizzix Love Struck die) and foil tape. The pendant is polymer clay painted silver and I have stamped and die-cut a small ticket (both stamp and die from Docrafts).
Another pic to show the tag in sunlight:
The little hints of red against the sepias really bring it to life Christine.
