Hi there! I hope you are having a great week so far! One of my crafting goals for 2014 is to join along with Tim Holtz's monthly 12 tags of 2014. I sadly missed March but I'm here today with April's entry :) Tim is forever sharing how to videos and tutorials on how to use all the fantastic Ranger products and inspiring us all to create. If you are like me, you have things you purchased but never used, well now is a good time to dust those off and put them to good use!
Here's a closer look:
The roses were made believe it or not using Tim's pine cone die which my dear friend Sue gifted to me a few years ago :). In case you are curious to know how to make them, Tim shares an awesome tutorial on his blog here. To colorize them, I used Spiced Marmelade, Broken China and Fired Brick Distress inks then added a coat of Ranger Rock Candy glitter. The tag looked a little naked so I added a sweet die cut grungeboard board which I coated with Ranger Rock Candy Crackle followed with some rubbed on Tea Dye and Broken China Distress Inks:
Following Tim's tutorial, I distressed and colored the die cut grungeboard and randomly filled in with fun die cut pieces from the Menagerie 8 paper pack and cork from my stash:
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Sweet ;)
