12 Tags as a Card

I wanted to see how I could translate Tim Holtz April's 12 Tags into a card rather than a tag. (I did the tag in my last post HERE.)   I also wanted to play along at Words 2 Scrap By's challenge of "Shine Bright like a Diamond."   I also wanted to enter The Card Concept Challenge "Use a Butterfly Theme" in their Shabby and Vintage category.  Here's what I came up with.

Instead of using the Trellis die I used my Lifestyle Crafts Diamonds die. I then filled in the empty spaces with a Ranger Foil Cardstock diamond and some bits and scraps left over from a previous project.  The background is the same as what Tim used for his tag.  Here's the rest of the products I used for this:

Ranger Manila Cardstock

Tim Holtz Tissue Tape

Distressed Paint in Bundled Sage

Distressed Ink in Vintage Photo

Stamper's Anonymous Simple Sayings

Ideology Paper Stash Kraft Resist

Ideology Salvage Stickers (Butterfly)

Really Reasonable Ribbon

Prima Flowers

Diamond Bling from my stash.

Happy Crafting!

12 Tags of 2014 April

I decided to play along with Tim Holtz and his 12 Tags of 2014 for April.  There's a lot of distressing and inking on this baby.  I used my new Tim Holtz Alterations Frameworks Trellis Die.

Roses are made from the Tim Holtz Tattered Pinecone die.  I love the mirror inserts in the trellis.  Hard to see in the photo but really makes the tag shine!

Happy Crafting
