Greetings friends! It's
May Flaum here,
and this week I'm pulling out my
Tim Holtz stash of supplies to create a
12x12 scrapbook layout!
It
seems like so often my
Tim Holtz stash gets used for cards, tags, and
canvas creations but the truth is I really love how much fun many of his
products are for scrapbooking! From the tissue to the rub-ons, letters
to tags - I had a blast making this page. Here are some process shots so
you can see how it all came together:
What to do with those tricky surfaces that won't stick? Just staple, use brads, or stitch!
I love painting these new
Tim Holtz letters. So ornate and perfect for some Disney fun.
Now
we're getting somewhere! As you see above, my letters were really blue.
So I used some
sand paper and scrubbed off a bit of color on my
finished project.
Below, I'm using my
tarnished brass distress paint with my
gears blueprint stamp to create some funky magic as an
accent. You can also see I've stitched my photos to the tissue so I can
be sure that they'll really stick.
For
contrast and added detail, I also added in some
number rub-ons. The
great thing about these is that I'm able to rub without cutting out or
worrying about parts I don't want to stick to attach themselves. They
are super easy to use.
Some more glue, a bit of metal, and before you know it I had a finished page with lots of funky detail.
Supplies Used:
I
also want to mention that I am absolutely in love with the new
Shattered cardstock by Tim. It is the cardstock I used on this page, and
I love the pre-aged look of it! This layout reminds me to scrapbook
more often with Tim Holtz, and in fact it's inspired a pink project that
you can find
over on my blog today. That's not all you'll find either - I also have a special (limited time!) special offer up today too.
