Thom<\/a> created a 50\u2019s hipster Jazz vibe for this card. He first selected his jazz player from Tim Holtz Paper Dolls Portraits<\/a> and then used the Stampers Anonymous Carved Instruments stamps<\/a> with Ranger Archival Ink Black Soot.<\/a> He cut out squares with his instruments and colored them with Distress Ink Tumbled Glass.<\/a> He went over the outline of each instrument with Distress Paint Picket Fence<\/a> and then added some highlights with Tim Holtz Holiday Blocks<\/a> and Big Tidings<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andrea<\/a> chose a record theme for her tag, which she made using Concord & 9th’s Greatest Hits<\/a> die set. She also used Wendy Vecchi’s Open Dots<\/a> stamp and Dina Wakley’s Healing and Light<\/a> stamp set for the background imagery. A little scrap of music paper from La La Land’s Spring Song<\/a> paper tops off her tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a tag inspired by a song, which is sadly just as relevant today as when it was written almost 40 years ago. She used Tim Holtz Vault World Travel die set<\/a> to die cut the globe and the title. The continents were die cut from kraft paper <\/a>and coloured with Prismacolor pencils. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kath<\/a> created a page in her Stamperia Mixed Media Journal <\/a>with a nod to the bird song symphony she enjoys every morning from the green finches and sparrows in her garden. She used Tim Holtz\/Stampers Anonymous Planks Background Cling Stamp<\/a>, Idea-ology Serendipity Collage Paper<\/a>, 49and Market Spectrum Gardenia Rub-onTransfers<\/a> and Tim Holtz\/Sizzix Feathered Friends<\/a> and Alphanumeric Theory<\/a> Thinlits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Macarena<\/a> made an Art Journal page with a background full of music notes from Hero Arts Collage Backgrounds Part Two Transfer Rub ons<\/a>. She used Tim Holtz Idea-ology Collage Layer Frames<\/a> and the Simon Says Stamp Tim Holtz Forgotten Garden Bundle<\/a> set of stamps and coordinated dies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Maura<\/a> created a band to play some jazzy tunes for you in her art journal. She used Tim Holtz’s Hipster stamps<\/a>, cut the images out with her Simon Says Stamp Fine Detail Scissors<\/a>, and added some bright colors to the background, like Dina Wakley’s Stoked Gloss Media.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Lesia Zgharda Music Fox Clear Stamp<\/a> on the background, and decorated it with Tim Holtz Idea-ology CLIPPINGS Sticker Book<\/a> and Tim Holtz Idea-ology Quote Chip Labels<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Zoey<\/a> used Tim Holtz Idea-ology AVIARY Collage Paper<\/a> for her background and added color with Distress Paint<\/a> and Distress Mica Stain<\/a>. She decorated her tag with a paper doll <\/a>and some clippings <\/a>from Ideaology<\/p>\n\n\n\n
