Mixed Media Tag We Can See Clearly

Hey, my dear crafty friends, welcome back to the new challenge. This week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge out theme is "WE CAN SEE CLEARLY". I was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Gauge Frames Embellishments and its plastic packaging to make windows to see Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Found Relatives Portraits. 

To start this project, I wrapped the size 8 tag with the foil and embossed it with Tim Holtz Foundry 3D Embossing Folder. The tag was distressed with a black ink pad a blender. I glued the Tim Holtz Gauge Frames and the plastic packaging cut from it to make the see through window, then pasted the vintage portraits under the windows using the foam tapes. 

Many metal embellishments and hardware heads were attached on the tag. I also added some sentiments using Tim Holtz Label Stickers and metallic stickers. The chipboard sentiment was distressed and pasted on the tag with foam tapes. 

Hope you liked my "We can see clearly" project and got inspired to create your own. Can't wait to see what you make! Happy crafting!

Mixed Media Tag Inspired by an Artist - Finnabair

Hey, crafty friends, welcome back to the new challenge! This week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge our theme is "INSPIRED BY AN ARTIST". I was inspired by Finnabair to create a mixed media tag using the portrait from Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Found Relatives and decorated the tag with Tim Holtz Gadget Gears Findings and Sentiments Label Stickers.

To start this project, I glued some big metal gears on the tag. The tag and gears were colored with Tim Holtz Distress Paints. The woman image was cut out from the Tim Holtz Found Relatives Portrait and colored with a blending tool and ink pads. 

I randomly added some text prints from Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Specimen Remnant Rubs. Some sentiments were adhered using Tim Holtz Sentiment Label Stickers and Metallic Sticker. I really adore Finnabair's creations with metallic and distressed effect with gears and beautiful portrait. Hope you got inspired to create a project inspired by your favorite artist. Share with us and have fun!
