here's Tim's Tag...
and no surprise that mine looks absolutely nothing like the Maestro's...I don't really think Tim wants us to make an exact replica of his tag but to use the techniques and put our own spin on them using the products we have in our crafty stash...that my excuse and I'm sticking by it...
I didn't buff mine as far back either...to be honest I didn't have any steel wool and the old dry brillo pad didn't have quite the same scrubby power but I rather like the more rusty metal look...
bought when I went to the Tim Holtz/Paperartsy Workshops with my lovely buddy Carol way back in February 2011...would come in handy some day...just goes to show that maybe all those "why did I buy that" purchases were not in vain.

I just knew that these metal embellishing tools...
See you all tomorrow over at WOYWW...

Really love your tag Kath! Love the 'rusty' background and the house is so cute :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE how this turned out, Kath - the little touches of that pretty green are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely job. I agree that Tim doesn't expect to be copied completely.
ReplyDeleteI like to think he wants to inspire us to create.
Your tag is amazing, love your background, those tools create such a realistic look and I love that unburnished look too. Your take on TH's tag is all the better for putting your own spin on it. Love the house. Crafty hugs, Anne x

So much depth and detail to your tag! I think keeping the rust was a great idea, it's an important color element on your tag.

ReplyDeleteSuper cute! I LOVE the color scheme! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYour tag is really pretty and I love your "spin" on it. That little house is a cool idea!<3 Candy
ReplyDeleteWonderful tag Kath. One of my favourite this month. I love the soft green contrast to the industrial metal. In fact my favourites and my own tag have been the ones that have put a bit of a feminine twist to their interpretation of Tm's tag this month.
ReplyDeleteOh...I love this! I really like the brown of the background and the little metal roof on the house! The house reminds me of my house built in 1920 and it's metal roof...well until we replaced the roof a couple of years ago.
ReplyDeleteI used metal embossing tools on my my project too. I have a whole set that I got from Ten Second Studios and I love them. They were perfect for working with the metal tape.
I love the warmth of your tag!
ReplyDeletewow is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteis creative!
Love the tag. Love how you soften the metal a bit with the green house and coordinating ribbon.
