Autumn<\/a> altered an Etcetera <\/a>T<\/a>ag<\/a> with PaperArtsy Frescos<\/a> and Infusions<\/a> on which she made a collage of Tim Holtz Paper Dolls<\/a> and Ephemera.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a notebook\/sketchbook this week. She used Eileen Hull Sizzix Folio Journal die<\/a> for the base and covered the book with beautiful papers from Tim Holtz Backdrops Volume 2<\/a>. The title was die cut with Simon Says Stamp Beautiful die<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cheiron<\/a> created one of her favorite things…ATCs using the new Tim Holtz Sizzix Funky Insects<\/a> dies. She created her cards using layers of Distress Paint, Gesso and stamping in Distress Archival Inks<\/a> using the Stampers Anonymous Media Marks 1<\/a> and Media Marks 2<\/a> Stamps. She watercolored her insects with Distress Inks and added different colors of Distress Embossing Glazes<\/a> to each one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emma<\/a> created a home decor project using Tim Holtz’s Display Dome<\/a> to showcase the brand new Sizzix Funky Cactus Thinlits Die Set by Tim Holtz<\/a>. She inked the cacti with Distress Spray Stains and Speckled Egg Oxide Spray<\/a> to obtain the perfect blend of colours and added Art Stones<\/a> and Baubles around the cacti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kath<\/a> created a sign for her craft room with a gentle reminder that tucking into her treat box too often can have BIG consequences. She decorated a Tim Holtz\/Stampers Anonymous Small Etcetera Tag<\/a> with papers from Idea-ology Backdrops Volume 1<\/a>, Worn Wallpaper Scraps<\/a>, Tim Holtz\/Sizzix Alphanumeric Bold <\/a>and Label<\/a> Thinlits and added the star of the show, the gorgeous Bernice<\/a> from Tim Holtz\/Sizzix Chapter 2 Colorize Collection, dressed in her Sunday best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> went quite industrial and made a steampunk tag mixing details from Tim Holtz Sizzix Mechanical Bigz L<\/a> and Steampunk Parts<\/a> dies. For the background she used Stampers Anonymous Rings<\/a> stamped with Distress Oxide Spray Aged Mahogany<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz Sizzix Intertwined 3D Texture Fades Embossing Folder<\/a> on the background and decorated it with Idea-Ology Industrial Gears Embellishments<\/a> and Sizzix Lucky Love 3D Impresslits cut nd Emboss Folder<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sandra<\/a> used a small canvas panel to create a home decor piece with the Wings and Bones<\/a>, Cogs and Wings<\/a> and Mechanica<\/a> moulds. With Liquid Acrylics Tiger Orange<\/a>, Carmine <\/a>and Burnt Siena<\/a> she added most of  the colors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Zoey<\/a> used various pieces of Idea-Ology Ephemera such as Tim Holtz Idea-ology Ephemera Pack FIELD NOTES<\/a> , Tim Holtz Idea-ology SNIPPETS Ephemera<\/a> and Tim Holtz Idea-ology FIELD NOTES SNIPPETS Ephemera<\/a>. They all are awesome collage pieces. To add color I used Distress Inks, Distress Paint and Distress Stain Spray. Quotes are from Tim Holtz Idea-ology CLIPPINGS Sticker Book<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
