Our theme this week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge is "PARTY TIME". The challenge is running for two whole weeks so you have until 8am on January 7th to join in.

I was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamp Birthday Blueprint and Mini Blueprint Strip Beer Cling Stamp to decorate it.

The tag was colored with Distress Paints on the background, and stamped with Tim Holtz Rubber Stamp Theories and the black ink pad. I heat embossed the images with the Clear Embossing Powder and a heat tool. Some Distress Paints with different colors were splattered on the background.

On a piece of white card stock, I stamped the party heat, a bottle and popcorn, then heat embossed these images. These images were colored with watercolors, cut and pasted on the tag.

The stamped sentiment were added on the tag with some sticker sentiments. I distressed the tag with Some Distress Paint around and tag and outlined the tag with a black brush pen. Some Distress Paints colored Star Findings were attached on the tag to make it more interesting.

Mixed Media Christmas Tag Stitch It Up

Meihsia Liu Simply Paper Crafts Mixed Media ChristmasTag Stitch It Up Tim Holtz Simon Says Stamp 1


Hello, my blog friends, welcome back for the new challenge. This week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge, out theme is "STITCH IT UP". You can add some stitches to your creation. You can use real, faux or die cut. I was inspired to create a mixed media Christmas tag using Tim Holtz Christmas Rubber Stamps Doodle Greetings to decorate the tag and embellished Idea-Ology Ephemera Pack Christmas Snippets with stitches on it.

To start this project, I applied Modeling Paste over the Tim Holtz Layering Stencil on this size 8 tag using a palette knife. The tag was colored using Distress Paint after the stenciled texture was dry on the background. On a piece of heavy card stock I stamped the wreath image and heat embossed it with the clear embossing powder. It was colored with Distress Paints, cut and added stitches with a sewing machine .

I also added stitches on two pieces of embellishments from Idea-Ology Ephemera Christmas Snippets. Two metal Christmas Token were colored and attached on the tag.

I randomly added some Christmas sentiments using Tim Holtz Christmas Remnant Rubs as the final touch. I've always loved the beautiful effect of stitches on many of my creations, and hope to see your project with some stitches, too. I can't wait to see what you create.
