Day 5 already!! Love Tim's tag today - using his reflections stamps and clear plastic - now I don't have any reflections stamps but the technique is the same as one that Tim uses on fragments and such-like and which I've tried before (with little success it has to be said)
But tonight it has worked better than before - mainly I think because I built up the layers of alcohol ink before stamping. Anyhow, check the Master's work
here for how it can look - and this is my version!
Had a sheet of heavy duty acetate and I cut round a tag to form the shape.
I used alcohol inks sailboat blue, stonewashed (not much, it didn't show up too well) and denim. Used the larger of Tim's snowflake stamps and the snowman is by Paperartsy. Tied some blue ribbon and that's it - decided it didn't need much more embellishing (don't have the ones Tim used, or any others suitable)
Nearly left it plain - quite like it!!
sorry about the glare from the flash on the camera!
Ok, no more crafting for me tonight - Liverpool are playing and on the TV so I'm off!!
