Mr O'Neil

Hello crafters!
Today I am showing a second inspiration make for our Country View Challenge on the theme "Aged, weathered, distressed or timeworn " hosted by Brenda.
For this tag I chose Paper Artsy Infusions to create the aged/distressed look in the background.


The base of my tag is thin wood cut with the AALL & Create Die set Tag It Yourself #27 and gessoed. I then sprinkled Infusions in Rusty Car, Walnut and A Bit Jaded onto the sprayed tag.
I added some stencilling with white acrylic with the Tim Holtz Mini Stencil #43. 

Bits of washi tape (AALL & Create #107), clip die-cut (AALL & Create #30 Taggletastic) embossed with a mix of Wow Embossing powders, with a note attached (stamp by Andy Skinner), Cello Sticker Tape  (TH94386) and finally paper doll (the imaginary Mr O'Neil now cast as an industry magnate!).


 
The cogs are cut from masterboards created with acrylic paints in black, and Distress Oxides sprays in Salty Ocean, Fossilized Amber and Tea Dye. Then they were die-cut with the Sizzix Bigz L Cogs .

  4. J'adore ce tag !!!! Bel exemple de vieillissement de fonds et d'embellissements, et une utilisation combinée parfaite de tous ces éléments tampons et dies qu'on a en stock et qui ne servent pas toujours... J'aime beaucoup l'ajout de ta petite note en haut !
    Bisous, Coco
