Tim Holtz September tag: Autumn

I haven't played for two months,

but I am back and hope to add the two I missed as well.

I absolutely love this month's tag

and here is my version of

Tim Holtz September tag:

You find all about the techniques on Tim's

blog and even though my tag looks different, I have

 used all the techniques he has shown in his tutorials.

This is the base of the tag. The girls is a

stamp by a Dutch firm called Stampinback,

everything else I used is from Tim Holtz's line.

As I do not have the butterfly die,

I decided to use my leaves from the movers & shapers

for this tag. After coloring my glossy paper with alcohol

inks in Autumn colors

I stamped on top with one of the script stamps from Tim

and used black archival ink. Now the strip of paper is

ready to use in the big shot.

Her are the finished leaves.

And the leaves were folded in halv and glued

to the tag on top of the face.

From the left over bits and pieces I cut these 

letters and added them to the tag.

Thank you for stopping by

and creative greetings,
