Still Hooked on Tim

This week I've been playing with alcohol inks using Tim Holtz's demos. I've finally found a technique I like. I made some embelishments using fragments, alcohol inks, and stamps. Originally, I was going to make a tag like in Tim's demo. But, I loved them so much, I scrapped the whole tag idea, and used them on something a little longer lasting.

I saw one of these that Tim made a long time ago, and I've been wanting to make one ever since. These fragments gave me the perfect excuse to make the frame, and I love it. I'm so glad I never took any of those classes. It's so much more personal, when you make it at home with all the things you've collected over the years.

The girls at the crop tonight loved the fragments, so we are going to get together again next Saturday for another day of Tim Holtz. If you are interested, please let me know. We will limit the group to 6, so we all have plenty of room, and a good view of the screen. (I already have 3 confirmed, and 2 maybes.)

Tim, I think you've created some distress grunge monsters here at the playground. I can't wait to meet you at the class at Ruban Rouge in July.

Happy Stamping!
