Thom <\/a>used a Steamboat Willie Duo by Sizzix<\/a> and the Classic Mouse Alphabet<\/a> for the sentiment. He used Antique Linen Distress Paint<\/a> and then used a Tim Holtz Stitches Stencil<\/a> along with Picket Fence Distress Paint.<\/a> When the paint had dried he used a Waffle Flower Hearts Stencil<\/a> along with Lumberjack Plaid paint<\/a> and ‘aged’ using a Scorched Timber Distress Crayon.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emma<\/a> created a tag inspired by the ‘discovery of doing what you love’ and she used three Tim Holtz Layering Stencils from Mini Stencil sets, 33<\/a> and 48<\/a> to make the background. She then used Tim’s idea-ology products including Paper Doll Poses<\/a>, Junk Drawer Baseboard<\/a> and a pointy finger Figure Stand<\/a> to complete the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
