Wanda<\/a> is taking a vacation in the woods.  She made this card using Sizzix <\/a> Seth Apter Word Wafers 1 <\/a>and Tim Holtz Forest Shadows <\/a> Thinlits Die Sets. She also used a  Tim Holtz Tree Line Cling Stamp Set<\/a> along with Distress Embossing Glazes<\/a>, Spray Stains<\/a>, Inks<\/a>, and Foundry Wax<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Andrea<\/a> likes collecting postcards of where she’s been on vacation, so that got her thinking about postage stamps. She made some stamps of her own using Elizabeth Craft Designs’ Postage Stamp Strips Dies<\/a>, washi tape (AALL & Create’s Fly Away<\/a> and Sugar Roll<\/a>), stamps (Tim Holtz’s Remnants<\/a> and Media Marks 1<\/a>) and patterned paper (Amy Tangerine’s Paper Play<\/a> and 49th and Market’s Toddler Time<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a tag in memory of last year’s vacation. She used various stamp sets by Tim Holtz, such as Rockstar<\/a>, Warehouse District<\/a>, Odds & Ends<\/a>. The gems are Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Dazzling Gunmetal Gems.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Barbara<\/a> made her June Memory Dex using All&create Spring Sprouts Dies<\/a> and Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Sea Life CMS304<\/a>. She used super summery colors with a Ranger Ink Distress Oxide Ink Pad<\/a> and Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Ink Pad Latte<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Cheiron<\/a> created a card using the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Travel Blueprints<\/a> stamps. She stamped the image onto some matte artist film using StazOn<\/a> ink and then painted the back of the image with Distress Paints<\/a>. She adhered the image to Ranger Black Matte Cardstock<\/a>, then placed it on a panel that had been embossed with the Vault Airmail<\/a> folder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Macarena<\/a> got back to her childhood memories when she spent each vacations in an old caravan with her parents. This one you can find in the 49 and Market Rust and Revs 2.0 Laser Cut Outs<\/a>. She placed it in a window made with Simon Says Stamp Squovals dies<\/a>. For the frame she used Tim Holtz Idea-ology Kraft Stock Stack Cool Paper<\/a> and stamped it with Tim Holtz Clear Stamps and Stencil Mini Media Marks Dotted and Stitched<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Maura<\/a> created a hybrid art journal\/scrapbook spread of her ocean cruise. She used a Simon Says Stamp Pepita Background Stamp<\/a>, Seth Apter\/Stencil Girl’s XZig Zag stencil<\/a>, and Tracy Evans Numerical Cats stamps<\/a> (because every ship has a cat, right?) in Stamperia’s 6×6 Watercolor Art Journal.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Stamperia Sea Land 8×8 Paper<\/a> on the background, and decorated it with Waffle Flower Beach Tote Dies<\/a> and Echo Park Yankee Doodle 6 x 6 Paper Pad<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Zoey<\/a> used Tim Holtz Layering Stencil Industrial<\/a> and Clockwork<\/a> for her background. She also used a bunch of Distress ink in brown shade<\/a>. To decorate her tag she used Air Traveler stamp<\/a> and black paste through Traveler<\/a> stencil for her words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
