Kerry<\/a> picked a specific number for her daughter’s birthday and used a Tim Holtz Celebrate Die Set<\/a> for the cake and streamers, a Holiday Script Stencil<\/a> for the background and Distress Inks<\/a> to color. She used a Postale Die Set<\/a> for the small number candles and a Label Sticker<\/a> for the sentiment, and she made an envelope to match. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Andrea<\/a> made a notebook cover using Elizabeth Crafts’ Number Reinforcers Dies<\/a> for the numeric element. She also stamped on a quote from Tim Holtz’s Theories<\/a> stamp set and used Simple Stories Flea Market<\/a> patterned paper to add some floral touches to the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Anna-Karin<\/a> used a whole bunch of numbers on this tag. The Simon Says Stamp vellum paper<\/a> was embossed in Tim Holtz Numbered 3-D embossing folder<\/a>. The small numbers were die cut with Tim’s Collector set<\/a> and the larger ones with his Alphanumeric Emporium set<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Barbara<\/a> has made a pair of tags in a very masculine mood! To stay with the theme she used different stamps and stencils from Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous: Mail Art CMS 339<\/a> and Industrial Layering Stencil<\/a>. In the center of her tags, she chose two Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Dies as male protagonists: Gentlemen<\/a> and The Gent<\/a>. For coloring, various Ranger Distress Spray Stains<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Cheiron<\/a> created a colorful card using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Numbered Texture Fade<\/a>. She colored in each of the numbers and the background with Distress Watercolor Pencils<\/a> and added some splatter. She added a focal image from the Winged Things 1<\/a> stamps and a colorful greeting from Note Quotes.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Kath<\/a> created a series of small notecards using Tim Holtz Idea-ology Pocket Cards<\/a> for the backgrounds, decorated with Idea-ology Snapshots<\/a>, Photobooth<\/a>, Flashcards<\/a>, Botanical Layers<\/a> and added numbers using Ephemera Snippets<\/a>, Typeset Collage Paper<\/a> and Labeled Remnant Rubs<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Lols <\/a>made a ‘New Home’ shaker card using a Tim Holtz Baseboards Window Frame<\/a>. For the background she used a Distressed Bricked Cling Stamp<\/a> along with Pumice Stone <\/a>and Fired Brick Distress Oxide Ink<\/a> and added some numbers using a Grunged Stamp Set<\/a>. She added a a lucky Mischievous<\/a> black cat, a Small Tattered Florals<\/a> tree and Simple Sayings <\/a>sentiment to finish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Macarena<\/a> made a flourish birthday card using Tim Holtz Halftone and Rings stamp<\/a> for the background and embossed it in white using Simon Says Stamp White Embossing Powder<\/a>. She made a bouquet with Honey Bee Lovely Layers Wildflowers<\/a> dies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Maura<\/a> made a time travel tag using Studio Light’s Fantasy Die Cut Tag<\/a>, Carabelle Studio’s The Dragonfly and The Rabbits stamp set<\/a>, and Simon Says Stamp’s Bold Numbers stencil.<\/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 Simon Says Stamp LARGE HOLIDAY SHAPES Wafer Dies<\/a> and Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamps VALENTINE BLUEPRINTS<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Zoey<\/a> loves numbers and she used bold numbers stencil<\/a> to decor her background. She also used a mix of Distress Ink<\/a> and Distress Paints<\/a> to decor her background. Tim Holtz’s ideaology embellishments such as Organic Layers<\/a> and Paper Dolls Portraits<\/a> were just perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
