I have a new purchase of some Tim Holtz dies Funky Nature and wanted to have a play as soon as I got them. I hadn't even spotted the lovely feather die when I bought them and this was definitely the one I wanted to use first.
I used a Tim Holtz tag die for my tag and used some good paper that could cope with the inks I was going to throw at it. I used some Distress Oxides in Speckled Egg and Crushed Olive with a touch of Salvaged Patina for the background. I added some Texture Paste through a stencil in Delicate Blue by Cosmic Shimmer. I used the same colours for the die cuts - adding a touch of Vintage Photo into the mix.
The bird is another of Tim Holt dies and I just added a touch of script stamping to give him a bit more interest. I added some Tim Holtz Washi fabric tape, some lace and a twig for the bird to stand on. The sentiments are from Tim Holtz Ideaology.
