Tag time

Yes, it is that time again over at Tim's blog!  this month it's all about tissue tape and grunge board so off I went to my table to create a tag.  I do like the look of tissue tape underneath all the paint and distress ink.  Mine is not as dimensional as Tim's because I used the tattered flowers die and not the pine cone one that he has but I'm not a fan of the pine cone die with all that twirling and gluing.  one of my favorite tricks I learned from Tim ..... no actually it was from a class I took years ago with SallyLynn MacDonald where you blend a lot of distress inks onto surface then flick on water to make what I call faux bleach spots.  If I'm not mistaken she took Ranger's certified classes back in the day and that is where she learned all about Distress inks and more.  anyway back to my tag ..... I used the mini car and arrow dies with grunge board and mirror paper then just added that metal gear piece for fun.
