Hi Everyone! Hope you are all doing well..
I absolutely LOVE this months tag!
As soon as I saw this tag, I knew exactly what I wanted to do.. I've strayed a little this month, and used some stamps from Viva Las VegaStamps!, instead of my Tim Holtz ones. For me as soon as I saw this tag I knew that I had to use these stamps,
I've followed most of the background technique, though I've not used texture paste with my stencil, instead I've opted again to go a little different and just used darker distress inks. ( I've used walnut stain and pumice stone.) I've also added in some Remnant Rubs as well as my pieces of idea-ology.
So without to much more babbling.. Here is my tag.. I absolutely love it!!
The Stamps I've used - Businessman silhouette and Big Ben are just a match made in heaven.. well in my eyes anyway :)
and of course I can't go past sharing a few close ups of all the inky, stamped layered goodness!!
