Tim Holtz tag August 2016

Tim is combining Brayered stains with Frameworks for the August tag and I decided to join in.

If you want to read on the techniques and see the steps by steps, the Master's class is here.

The background is Distress inks in Antique Linen, Walnut, Scattered Straw, Red brick and Tumbled Glass.

The Hexagon framework has been die-cut with a thin die (Papertrey ink) which didn't give quite as good a result as the Steel rule Framework die would have given with Grungepaper. I decided that a bit more of distress, even unintentional, was OK....
I have filled my hexagons with:

• canvas stamped with a music score, both on the primed side and the raw side on the reverse.
• blue, mirror like foil, stuck on cardstock
• cork from a thin sheet.

The die-cut flowers are by Papertrey ink (Larger Than Life die set) and the stamped and embossed mini tags are made with a Crafty Individuals stamp plate (CI-428 Its a Man's World).

I love how the background turned out and this has pushed me into trying something new which I actually enjoyed!
