Jess has created a snarky tag, using Ink Road Stamps and Found Relatives, that will make you want to transport yourself and your girlfriends to far away places!

Andrea made some paper-scrap cards with matching envelopes to transport them in.  She used Simon Says Stamp’s Gift Card Envelope die, Stamperia’s Wonderland paper, and the We R Memory Keepers Typewriter.

Anna-Karin made a peaceful art journal page this week, on a double page spread in her Dina Wakley Media Journal. She used the new SSS Your Light stamps, from the Rest and Refresh release.

Barbara chooses the car to imagine a trip around the world! She used to create her project Tim Holtz Idea-ology Mini Clipboard Structures, Tim Holtz Sizzix Lumber, Ranger Alcohol inks, Tim Holtz stencil Tiles and Tim Holtz Idea-ology Found Relatives.

Cheiron created a card to transport her away from the summer heat and into a cool breeze using the fan stamp from Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Inventor 8 set on a background created with Distress Oxide Sprays along with paper from the Metallic Confections Craft Stock Paper Pad. 

Emma is transporting you with a time travelling adventure and created an Etcetera tag using The Professor stamp set by Tim Holtz and the Voltage Die to tell the story of this gentleman, who is taking a step back in time.

Kath created a card which would be perfect if you have family or friends who are car fanatics/motorheads using Distress Oxide Sprays from the new release, Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Vintage Auto, Hex Gradient and Patchwork Circles Mini Layering Stencils with Tim Holtz/Sizzix Steampunk Parts BigZ die and Idea-ology Found Relatives.

Macarena built up her own transport using Prima Marketing Cogs and Wings and Mechanica Moulds. She gave the canvas panel a nice texture with Visible Image Count Me In and Geometric Maze stencils. 

Maura imagined herself back in Paris on a Vespa (not that she’s ever been on a Vespa, sigh…) in her Dina Wakley Media Journal. She used Stamping Bella’s Uptown Girl Vienna and her Vespa stamp, the Simon Says Stamp Yupo paper and Tim Holtz Alcohol Pearl inks. 

Meihsia was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz Rubber Stamp Travel Ways and decorated it with Idea-Ology Quote Token. 

Sandra was inspired by the Professor stamp set to make him into Professor Gadget, she colored him in with Distress Markers and made his eyes pop with Glossy Accents.

So now it’s YOUR turn to get out your inks, paints and all things arty and start creating! We are looking forward to seeing what you make!
