Don't forget, you can double click the photos and they will open up large for better viewing. I cut a tag from white card stock with the Tag and Bookplates die and stamped it with a stamp from the Ultimate grunge set using SU's Taken with Teal and Versamark, then clear embossed it. Next I did the Marbled Stains technique using Mustard Seed and Picket Fence distress stains and then randomly stamped with the Curiousities set in Coffee archival ink.
For embellishments I added a film strip that I heated to make it curl, a Mini Paper Clip, a Foliage piece embossed with Enamelware EP, and a Label Pull with the word Photograph from the Chit Chat stickers. I die cut the tiny hearts from a book page and coated them with Glossy Accents. I
The vintage photo was downloaded from Magic Moonlight and printed on regular white card stock. I used Taken With Teal and Mustard Seed DI with a Cut 'n Dry Pen Nibs to color the photos. It didn't color perfectly but it worked pretty well. I didn't have any photo paper and tried printing it on to glossy card stock, but the ink smeared with the Cut 'n Dry nib so I went with plain CS.
That's if for this one. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks so much for stopping by and for your lovely comments!

Linda: when I saw Tim Holtz meets inspiration photo I kinda went, "HuH?" But when I saw your tag I went, "aaaaaaah." Beautiful. I love that yellow gold/turquoise color combo, and your aged photo is flawless. There are so many interesting elements to draw you into the study of this artful tag. TFS

ReplyDeleteHi. I went to your boutique and had some great stuff in my basket. When I checked out, something happened with Zibbett and i guess my order was lost? Since then, at least 3 days,I cannot get back on your store. Everytime I chose an item Zibbett pops up and says there is a problem. I wrote Zibbett and they responded that I should sign in and everything will be fine. NOT!! I guess they think I am an idiot. Anyway, the bottom line is that I have an order, lost it, and now need to start all over but cannot. Can you help in anyway? This is the only way I could contact you as I do not have Outlook. suzschultz23@aol.com. Hope to hear from you. sue
ReplyDeletep.s. Love your creations and I am an avid follower. Must have my Funkie Junkie fix every day. sue

ReplyDeleteLinda, what a great tag! I've always thought that black and white photos with hints of color look wonderful, but only ever did them with a computer program...DUH..why did I not think to use this technique. It really looks amazing. Your little book hearts are gorgeous too.
ReplyDeleteLove your funky take on the challenge. :)
OMG, this is a real stunner, Linda!
