Time for another contribution to the
Tim Holtz Twelve Tags of 2013 challenge. I can hardly believe how quickly time is flying past this year! As usual Tim has come up with another great tag for this month, and has given us the opportunity to have a go at using the new Remnant Rub Ons. I must say I really like the way they resist the ink. I made two tags but have chosen this one as I think I've positioned it better. I've used a few improvisations such as stamping the film strip onto acetate and making my own 'enamelled' token. For this I used a blank pendant baseand made a white Fimo centre. After baking it I added the Remnant Rub Ons and a little alcohol ink on the edges, before covering with a layer of Glossy Accents. I shall certainly be doing this again as I really like the way it turned out. Although I have Tim's Mona Lisa stamp, I decided to go with this phrenology head stamp, partly because I love it so much and also because I've recently completed another project using lots of Mona Images. You can see that
here. So that's it for now, I'm looking forward to seeing what Tim has in store for June. x
I really love the colours you've used on this and the composition of the tag is perfect. I love that phrenology head too. x

Such a great take on Tim's tag Toni, I really love how you improvised with the films strip and the enamel piece, the Fimo looks fabulous. Love the phrenology head stamp too, on my ever lengthening wish list..... Hugs, Anne x
ReplyDeleteHi Toni, I really like your May Tag. Your improvisation of the enamel piece with fimo is a super idea and it has turned out great. I really need to get shifted as I have not done mine yet, only 7 days to go yikes! Hugs Mo x

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Love the white peeking through and the perch you gave the head, with the metal sentiment.
ReplyDeleteToni...your tag is absolutely fabulous! I love everything about it...the color of the background, the rubons that you used, the other ephemera and especially the phrenology head that is your focal point. Oh my goodness..that is just amazing! I also wanted to thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving such a nice comment about my melt art mania piece. <3 Candy
