Ann created a beautiful Tim Holtz Etcetera Mini Tag Thickboard this week using Distress Oxide Spray. For the background, she used the Fragments Stamp Set and Crackle Paste. The Lace Baseboard Frames were decorated with Adornments Floral and Baseboard Dolls.

Andrea made a tri-fold tag envelope that holds a tiny tag notebook inside. She used some of her favorite classic Tim products such as the Stacked Tags die, the Tag Collection die, the Wildflower die, Big Chat stickers and Paper Dolls.

Anna-Karin created a tag with a textured, yet neutral, background and a colorful bird made with Tim Holtz Patchwork Bird die. The bird was stamped with various background stamps, such as the Ledger Script. She used Tim’s Latticework stencil for the background.

For this challenge, Barbara is in her comfort zone using Tim Holtz products to create a steampunk tag!!  She used an Etcetera Tag MiniTim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Faded TypeTim Holtz Stampers Anonymous VictorianRanger Ink Embossing powder Garden Patina and Mixed Media SeaIdea-ology Baseboard Frames.

Emma created a double layered tag project using the Small and Medium Etcetera Tags, painted with Distress Paints to give a textured effect on the background. She used Tim Holtz’s The Professor 2 stamp set as the focal point, surrounding him with Corked Vials and Sprocket Gears.

Kath decorated a Medium Etcetera Tag to say thanks to Tim Holtz “The Professor” for his “What If” inquisitive mind and his latest release of exciting and innovative products. She used Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous The Professor 2, Grunged and Glitch 1 with Distress Embossing Glazes, Sizzix Alphanumeric Classic Upper Thinlits, an Idea-ology Quote Chip, Stencil Chip and Measurement.

Macarena kept her card brown and green for a vintage look. She stamped the background with several Tim Holtz Inventor stamps and used some Tim Holtz Idea-ology metal parts. She finished the details using Tim Holtz Rock Candy Distress Crackle paint.

Maura made two fun-loving tags to put in an art journal, using the Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Snarky Cat stamp set, Tim Holtz Distress Resist Spray, and Distress Oxide Sprays in Twisted Citron, Mermaid Lagoon, and Seedless Preserves.

Meihsia was inspired to create a mixed tag using Tim Holtz Sizzix Cut Out Leaves Thinlits Die Set on the background and decorated it with Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Quotations Metallic Stickers

Sandra had lots of fun making this tag using lots of Tim Holtz products, she used Distress Ink Faded Jeans and Ground Espresso for the background and for the main focus she used the The Professor stamp set, and gave it a dimential element with the Circle Shaker Pouch

Zoey as always used a mix of distress paint with gesso to create this fun background. She also used Tim Holtz Layering Stencil Stitches to create some details and then to mute down the color she used Tim Holtz Plain Collage Paper.
