Cassie used a Tim Holtz French Garden Cling Stamp Set and the Simon Says Stamp Coordinating Die Set for the flowers. For the background she used a Tim Holtz Classics #4 Cling Stamp Set. The flowers are colored with distress water color pencils. The fun splatters were made with Spellbinders Splatter White Opaque Watercolor Paint. 

Andrea made a spritzy-splattery journal spread in her Studio Light Creative Journal. She used Tim Holtz Distress Oxides in Scorched Timber and Lost Shadow for the background and splattered on some Dina Wakley White Media Gloss Spray. She also incorporated bright ephemera pieces from AALL & Create’s Faded Memories and Rose Reverie sets.

Anna-Karin made an art journal page using mists, splatter and ink. The page is done in Stamperia’s Create Happiness Mixed Media 6×3.5 Journal. Both Ranger Distress Spritz and Distress Oxide Spray were used together with stencils. The trees were die cut with Simon Says Stamp Snow Laden Trees.

Barbara created a Valentine tag using Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Layering stencil Heartstruck in her background, along with Ranger Distress Spray Stain Aged Mahogany and Distress Spritz Antique Linen. As sentiment she used the Tim Holtz Pennants Stamps with Simon Says Stamps Dies Bundle. At the center of her project is a portrait from the Idea-ology Photomatic pack.

Kath created a gift box, card and tag inspired by Simon Says Create Together – Sending Love YouTube Class. She used Picked Raspberry Distress Spray Stain and Distress Spritz to create spritz and splatter backgrounds, die-cut with Simon Says Sweethearts Box and Postage Stamp Edge Frames dies and decorated with Love Letter stamp set and dies.

Macarena spritzed the entire card with Tim Holtz Flip Top Distress Paint Picket Fence. She used Tim Holtz Brushstrokes stamp on the heard which she sewed and fussy cut. She added elements from 49 & Market Krafty Garden Elements Laser Cut Outs and chipboards from the same collection.

Maura made a Love You tag using several types of sprays including Tim Holtz Winterberry Distress Mica Spray, and Tim Holtz Distress Carved Pumpkin Spray, along with Simon Says Stamp’s Floating Leaves Stencil She added a bouquet of flowers made with the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Abstract Florals stamp set.

Meihsia was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamps NOBLE GENT on the background, then colored it with Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi 48 COLOR Set and splattered it with Tim Holtz Flip Top Distress Paint Foursome.

Zoey used Tim Holtz Flower Jar + Flower Jar Thinlits to create a little cluster, she also used Vault Boutique to add more decoration to her tag. To color she used Distress Ink Spray Stain with the matching Spritz
