and the Etcetera Thick Board Tag which comes in 3 sizes...what a fabulous surface to work on...
and here's how I used the products to decorate my tag...
using Ranger Texture Paste...Harlequin Layering Stencil and Collage Medium Matte
Sizzix BigZ Butterfly Duo and Texture Fade...
and Sizzix Wildflowers Thinlits...
I die cut the Wildflowers and Butterflies from the Distress Mixed Media Heavystock Card and oh boy does this card love Distress Crayons...they go on like butter and blend beautifully...
and thankfully it made it's way safely across the pond to Phoenix Arizona...
ready for showtime...you can see how the other Designer Challenge artists...including my lovely buddies Emma...Kaz...Zoe and Kassa decorated their tags...time to feast your eyes on the magic of Distress.
If like me you've been glued to the computer for days following Tim's Facebook Live feeds you'll know that things are about to become a whole lot more magical with the addition of Distress Oxides to the line...woohoo I can't wait to play but first I'll be hitting the cubbyhole running in an effort to play catch-up...back to the daily 9-5...back to the here and now.
