Tim's Tag for September.

A big welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I have been making Tim's tags but not getting many posted so I thought this would be one month when I would get on with it early.

The techniques that Tim used in this tag really inspired me.
Although I had most of the materials and stamps he used, I really wanted to make it my own so decided to adapt it a little.

It was definitely the Birds in Flight Sizzlits die that inspired me to complete the tag in the way that I have.
Hope you like it.

I started off by using the Rays Stencil with the alcohol blending solution and then coloured the card with alcohol ink as Tim suggested dragging the card through it.
This is basically the materials I used.



 You can see  the birds have been cut out. To do this stage, use glossy card, apply several colours of alcohol ink and stamp onto it with the Embarkation Stamp from the Artful Voyage set then cut out using the Sizzlits die.

I stamped onto the coloured card using the ship stamp from the Artful Voyage set.

I used the Numbers Rub-On set which seemed appropriate as it has a passenger's coupon which I quite liked.

All that was left to do was to put the whole thing together and
here is the finished tag.

 
And a close-up.


Full instructions for all of these techniques can be found on
Tim's blog.


I hope you like the finished tag.
 
Happy crafting,
Angela x
