My project for this week’s challenge at Studio L3 uses the technique described on page 56 of Tim Holtz’s Compendium of Curiosities, Volume 2. The background of the tag was created using that technique.
The sentiment stamp and the little girl reading stamp are from Artistic Outpost (My Favorite Book). The little girl was colored with Distress Reinkers and a water brush. The metal flower is from Tim Holtz. The charms at the top of the tag are Industrial Chic charms sent to me by a special friend. The purple tie was stained with Distress Stain.
I have always loved to read. I am working on a mini album of our primary school years (my husband and myself), so the vintage “school” images fit with my frame of mind right now.
