May Tag Inspired by Tim Holtz

Hi folks, hope your weekend has been great so far! I'm back with a tag I worked on most of the afternoon - not exactly a quick and easy one. But, hey, I got this one in under the wire :). It's is my tag for Tim Holtz's May tag. I had pretty much everything he used on his, but I wanted to change it up some so here is my take on the inspiration he gave us.

I took regular tissue paper and spritzed it with a solution of water and Vintage Photo reinker. Then stamped in Ranger Coffee Archival Ink with images from TH's Haberdashery and also from Wendy Vecchi's A Form of Art set, just to change it up a bit. I adhered the tissue paper with Glue n' Seal, but I think Tim's way of using the glue stick is better. With the Glue n' Seal or Multi Medium Matte (my normal way of gluing) you must be very careful not to rip the tissue paper. I dried it with my heat tool and then sponged it lightly with Walnut Stain DI. I adhered the half doily with a generous amount of Multi Medium Matte rubbing it in with my finger and also dabbing a bit of Tattered Rose Distress Stain on it and blending it in with my finger. When dry, I sponged it lightly with Walnut Stain DI.

I broke out the new Harlequin Border Decorative Strip die and used it with some Kraft Core'dinations, lightly sanded with my Sanding Grip. My seam binding was dyed with a few drips of Bundled Sage reinker and water and woven through the openings in the Harlequin die cut.

You probably recognize the metallic heart wings from my post on Frilly and Funkie last week. I finally found a home for them. I got my melting pot out and instead of dipping mulberry paper flowers into to the hot UTEE, I dipped a canvas flower (made with the Tattered Pinecones die) and canvas leaves (made with the Tattered Leaves die) for a very interesting effect. My other tiny flowers were cut with the Tattered Flowers Decorative Strip die from white CS, sponged with Aged Mahogany DI and then dipped into the hot UTEE effectively making them enameled flowers.

I've listed below all the products I used on this piece that can be purchased at my Funkie Junkie Boutique. Don't forget about the Memorial Day sale - 10% off everything in the store through May 28th.
