Andrea<\/a> made a tag using lots of dies from AALL & Create (Intricatags<\/a>, Heartnook<\/a> and Frayed Frames<\/a>). She added texture with fabric and Simon Says Stamp’s hole-filled Stitching Panel<\/a> die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Anna-Karin <\/a>made a pastel card with soft textures: splatters and splotches, stamping, old book paper, a doily and more. The background paper is Ranger’s Specialty Stamping paper<\/a> which in itself has an interesting texture. The roses, doily and leaves were die cut with Tim Holtz Sizzix Vault Boutique set.<\/a> The background is stamped with Simon Says Stamp Old Letter Background<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Barbara<\/a> made a tag using the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Forgotten Garden <\/a>stamp set and the Labels stencil.<\/a> She used Ranger Grit Paste Translucent <\/a>and Prima Marketing Honey Finnabair Art Alchemy Metallique Wax<\/a> as textures. In the center the butterfly is cut with the Sizzix Vault Scribbly Butterfly <\/a>die and the small decorations with the Vault 2 Boutique<\/a> thinlits die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Cheiron<\/a> created a tag with lots of texture using DIstress Opaque Texture Paste<\/a> through the Feather <\/a>Layering Stencil. She sprayed over the dried paste with Distress Spray Stains and did some stamping using the Correspondence set. She added a Photobooth<\/a> photo along with a stamp from the Postmarked<\/a> sticker book and a Snarky Talk<\/a> sticker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Kath<\/a> created an Art Panel Collage in neutral tones decorated with paper from Tim Holtz\/Idea-ology Backdrops Volume 1<\/a>, Serendipity Collage Paper<\/a>, Postmarked Sticker Book<\/a>, Cello Sticker Tape, all favourites from the new Tim Holtz Idea-ology release and Distress Texture Opague Crackle<\/a> with the Deco Floral Mini Layering Stencil from Set 60<\/a> to add texture and added pops of colour with Distress Crayons<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Macarena<\/a> started with embossing the base of her tag with Tim Holtz Sizzix Tree Rings 3D Embossing Folder<\/a> and then she added a stitched panel with a negative bird cut out from Tim Holtz Sizzix Silhouette Birds die<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Maura<\/a> took the opportunity to cover one of her art journals with texture and color. She used Tim Holtz’s Deco Feather stencil,<\/a> Ranger’s Transparent Matte Texture Paste<\/a>, and added color with paints like the Dina Waklley Acrylic Paints in Ocean<\/a> and Magenta.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using The Crafter’s Workshop WHITE MODELING PASTE<\/a> and Tim Holtz MINI STENCIL SET 3<\/a> for the texture on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz Idea-ology TRANSPARENT THINGS<\/a> and Tim Holtz Idea-ology PAPER DOLLS MINI<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Zoey<\/a> used Grit Paste Opaque<\/a> through the beautiful Damask Layering Stencil<\/a> . Then she used Distress Spray Stain<\/a> to add color to her background. She decorated her tag with Ideaology <\/a>Items and Artsy Leaves<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
