Estelle created a tag featuring a photo of her daughter framed inside a Tim Holtz Baroque Frames. The background was built with a collage of Large Collage Strips and various pieces of Ephemera all adhered using Collage Medium Matte. A Flourish Layering Stencil was used to add extra design detail while Opaque Crackle Paste and Gathered Twigs Distress Crayon created added texture and depth.

Andrea made a tag using AALL & Create’s Hexalove die set and decorated it with Tim Holtz’s Deconstructed stamp set. She painted it with watercolors and used the We R Makers Oval Crop-A-Dile to add an oval-shaped hole and eyelet at the top.

Anna-Karin made a mix media tag with patterned paper flowers. The flowers were die cut with Simon Says Stamp Divine Peony from Tim Holtz Yellow and Orange Palette papers. The die cut sentiment is from Tim Holtz Handwritten Journey die set.

Barbara created a tag swatchbook using the new Tim Holtz Idea-ology Palette Paper Collection in various colors, making one collage for each color. To cut the tags, she used the Simon Says Stamp Luggage Tags wafer dies. She chose Ranger Ink Distress Stain Sprays to create a rainbow effect on the ribbon holding the swatchbook.

Cheiron created a size 8 Distress Mixed Media Tag using the Tim Holtz Idea-ology Palette Papers in Teal as her base. She added some Distress Paint in Ripe Persimmon, Evergreen Bough and Squeezed Lemonade to the background of her paper to mute it a bit and then added the Tim Holtz Perspective Butterfly as her focal point.

Emma made a Size 8 Etcetera Tag using some classic Tim Holtz dies by Sizzix including the Wildflower Stems and the gorgeous bee from the Funky Insects die set and layered these onto a inky background created with Distress Spray Stains, Oxide Inks and Translucent Paste applied through the Halftone Mini Layering Stencil.

Kath created a trio of Tag shaped cards using Simon Says Stamp Long Stem Florals stamp set and Long Stem Florals Color Blocks Stencil, Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Mr Rabbit to add interest on the background and Idea-ology Label Stickers for the sentiments.

Lols is currently creating a set of Tim Holtz #8 Etcetera Tags using Palette Idea-ology Paper Packs. For this tag, she collaged papers from the Green Collection and incorporated a Found Relative with a Baroque Frame. A Baseboard Doll was added as the focal point, then finished with a Metallic Sticker and a few Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Dazzling Gold Gems.

Macarena made a layered tag using for Tim Holtz Sizzix Nembered 3D Texture Fades Embossing Folder for the background and brayered the texture with Tim Holtz Small Distress Brayer and Black Soot Distress Paint. For the focal point she chose Brutus Monroe Bookworm Creative Cards.

Maura created birthday tags for her sons using Dina Wakley Media Tags, Simon Says Stamp Old Letter stamp, Tim Holtz Funky Insects dies, and Tim Holtz Papercut Cafe dies.

Meihsia was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz Layering Stencil Typo on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz idea-ology FAUCET KNOBS and Tim Holtz idea-ology LOCKET KEYS Metal Hardware Keyhole.

Zoey added crackle paste colored with Distress Ink Reinker, she used various pieces of Tim Holtz paper and used Distress Oxide Spray to add some contrast to her background. She also used Distress Ink to darken up the edges. The focal point are a mix of Ideaology Products Stitched together.
