Compendium of Curiosities III Challenge #26

Hello friends!  It's time for Compendium of Curiosities III Challenge #26, I'm just barely getting in on this one!  Linda Ledbetter is hosting this CC3 Challenge over on her blog Studio L3.  All the tips and techniques for this challenge is found on page 42 of Tim Holtz's Compendium of Curiosities Volume Three book.  If you don't have this great book you can find it here and Tim Holtz will even sign it for you!  This challenge is sponsored by The Funkie Junkie Boutique who have a wonderful $25 gift voucher to give away to one lucky winner. Also, the Curiosity Crew Pick wins a fabulous pack of goodies from Tim and Mario!  Now, here is my take on this fun Smudge Stamping Technique Challenge!  I went with another masculine theme :)
I've listed all the stamps and ink colors I have used to create this tag in the links below.
Now that I'm finished with Challenge #26, I'm ready for #27...bring it on!

12 Tags of 2015 {My April Version}

Hello, my blogging friends!  Today I'd like to share my April version of Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of 2015.  Tim Holtz has a wonderful tutorial on his blog with step-by-step instructions on how to create this fun technique here.  I followed his color pallet and stamp choice, but I didn't have the same dies.  I used the handwritten love and the alphanumeric die sets, to create a similar look.  I really wanted to do that great black stitching tim has on his, but I had cut my wording a little too close to the edge, so it didn't happen.  I was still really happy with how my tag turned out.  I'm envisioning maybe incorporating it into a canvas to hang on the wall!
