So I decided that I should really stop collecting anything Tim Holtz/Ranger related and actually start using them! The result is a suitably distressed tag that took 3 nights...[okay...about 30 minutes each night...I can hardly stay awake when night falls...*LOL* Yep...I nap first if I want to go clubbing...]
Distressing is pretty therapeutic! The base tag is a grunge board...this stuff is indestructible! *winks* Love that I finally used the old watch face casing I had in my stash! :)
Supplies: Graphic 45 patterned papers, Ranger grunge board, distress inks, distress powders, distress stickles, texture hammer,glossy accents, Claudine Hellmuth Gel Medium, Maya mist green), brads, metal embellishments, lace trim, doilies, wrapping tissue.
I was inspired by Moxie Fab World's Doilies and Lace challenge.
P/s: Have a fantabulous weekend my friends! Come play along with LESSology Challenge #14: Birds of a feather. It ends on Sunday! :)
