Tattered Tree - Tim's Tag #7

While I wasn't crazy over Tag #6, I love the earth colors of Tim's Tag #7. I followed his process and techniques pretty closely. I love kraft glassine, but have never used alcohol inks on it. I know you can't stamp on it with regular stamping ink but I never thought about colorizing it with alcohol inks. I followed his directions and it worked wonderfully. I loved what he did with the holly leaves but I wanted to change up a bit so I broke out the new pine tree die I just bought. The "Winter Fun" and subtle snowflakes are Stampin' Up rub ons that have been in my stash for the past two years. Nothing is much of a mystery here. I did put a little gold mesh under the burlap. It twinkles pretty nicely IRL. Let me know if you have any questions.
