Tim Holtz has a habit of presenting the most delightful technique samples on #8 shipping tags. I only rarely have the stuff to do one like his and generally try the technique in a different format.
Well, this time I was surprised to find that I had almost all the stuff and what I didn't have could be approximated fairly easily
The tag isn't Kraft Tag, but the back side of one of the scraps of a paper from his Kraft Resist pad. I cut the tag using Tim's Bigz die.
I didn't have and can't find the Antiquities Cement EP. I used Distress Powder Weathered Wood in its place and I think it came out well. The real fun was making the Butterfly Mosaic pieces. Who'd a thunk????
And I truly love that saying. It's one that I will use again and again.
I hope you like it and will try this yourself. It's really an easy tag and I love the techique. You can find the instructions at http://timholtz.typepad.com/my_weblog/2012/03/12-tags-of-2012-march.html
