Ok its Monday again and I always look forward to the Art Challenges from
Linda at Studio L3 and the staff at Simon Says Stamp and Show.
At Studio L3 the challenge is Tim Holtz's Technique Challenge from January 2008.
At Simon Says Stamp and Show the challenge is Show Your Distress/ Torn Edge.
This challenge seemed perfect to use my dress form stamps and embossing folders from Tim .
I really wish you could see this tag in person for when I finished I cut a tag from corrugated cardboard using Tim's Tag and Bookplate die and adhered my inked tag to it.
This gave me just the perfect thickness to insert the trinket pins through the piece.
I'm really happy with the way this one turned out.
This will most likely go it to my sister tied to a gift of some sort :)
Love the tag Stephen.
ReplyDeleteGreat job!

Super tag!
ReplyDeleteOh wow Stephen that pink really pops out, brilliant tag. Annette
ReplyDeleteI love the balance design you used with the measuring tape on the tag and then used it again through the hole of the tag to hang! Very clever! Thank you for sharing your work with Simon Says Stamp!
ReplyDeleteThank you!

I really really like your dress form tag. The muted background colors are really nice and the dress form really pops. The measuring tape stamp and then adding the measuring tape ribbon is a nice touch! Love the spool end and the torn embossed paper attached with the hinge clip, too. Nicely done! Thanks for sharing your tag with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show! <3 Candy
