Andrea<\/a> loves relaxing with a good book on vacation, so she made a bookmark using Concord & 9th’s Swatchbook dies<\/a>. She also used Dina Wakley’s Scribble Sticks 2<\/a> and some Flea Market<\/a> patterned paper from Simple Stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Anna-Karin<\/a> created a mixed media seaside scene in her Dylusions Art Journal<\/a>. The page was painted with Dina Wakley Media Acrylic Paint<\/a>. The base of the little boats were made with Tim Holtz Chatter Design Tape<\/a> and an old dictionary page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Barbara<\/a> made a trio of tags inspired by the colors of summer! She used two stamp sets by Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous, Snarky Cat<\/a> and Bird Crazy<\/a>, and two Sizzix Thinlits Dies, Happy Hour<\/a> and Under The Sea 1 Colorize<\/a>. The colors she used are Ranger Distress Ink pads<\/a> and Sprays Stain<\/a>, the sentiments are from Idea-ology Snarky Small Talk Stickers.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emma’s<\/a> vintage style tag project is all about friendship and creating happy memories on vacation. She created dimension and layers on an Etcetera Tag using the Sizzix\/Tim Holtz Swirls Embossing Folder<\/a>, Backdrops Paper<\/a> to make paper rolls and then arranged a Snapshots 2 Photograph<\/a> over the top surrounded by Floral Adornments<\/a> and die cut foliage<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lols <\/a>made a card using a Katzelcraft La Souris Photographe<\/a> stamp. Everyone who goes on vacation takes a camera and this little mouse is currently in New Zealand taking photo’s of all of the lovely sheep! For the background she used Tim Holtz Lost Shadow Distress Ink<\/a>, a Rings Cling Stamp<\/a>, White Embossing Powder<\/a> and Hickory Smoke Distress Crayon<\/a>. She added Tim Holtz Label Sentiment Stickers<\/a> and a Snarky Small Talk<\/a> sentiment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> has sent Gladys from Tim Holtz Colorize Gladys<\/a> on a trip with a small suitcase from Tim Holtz Baggage<\/a>. She cut the Tim Holtz Destination <\/a>map from a lovely Idea-ology Kraft Stock Sparkle Classic<\/a> paper. For the stenciled background she used her favorite Distress Oxide Uncharted Mariner<\/a> ink. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Maura<\/a> says when you can’t get away on a real vacation, you can still dream about it. She made an art journal page using Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors<\/a>, Studio Light Art by Marlene So Fish-ticated die cuts<\/a>, and loves using her Simon Says Stamp Fine Detail Scissors<\/a> to cut things out like her palm tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamps AIR TRAVEL<\/a> on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz Idea-ology ODDS AND ENDS Embellishments<\/a> and Tim Holtz Idea-ology LABEL STICKERS THOUGHTS<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
