A NEW YEAR'S TAG

I was inspired by the challenge over at Simon Says Stamp Monday to use a new to me set of Aallandcreate stamps I have that I've not inked yet.  They are by Bipasha BK and the set is called Time Up.  As we are in a New Year I thought the clock would make a good focus point for my tag.

I used lots of layers on the tag and even forced myself to cover some of them up - I find that very difficult.  I started off with some Distress Paints in Salvaged Patina, Brushed Corduroy and Walnut Stain.  I then used a Tim Holtz stencil of the clocks and used Salvaged Patina watercolour pencil to add the colour in the background.  I added some collage paper - Typeset for the added numbers at the side.  I also added some Tim Holtz Ideaology Ephemera, some lovely thick washi tape of Tim's which is sparingly used and the sentiment is from one of his stamp sets.  I covered the clock in Sepia Accents from Ranger.

I'm adding this into the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - new Aallandcreate

Stamping Sensations - AG 

We love2create - AG Mixed Media

Delighted to be chosen as one of the top 3 for Simon Says Stamp Monday
