Vintage Time Traveller

Good morning everyone from a very wet and windy Shetland! Today is a bonus day over at A Vintage Journey as the Design Team are sharing tags made in the Tim Holtz style filling the spot which will eventually be filled by winners and Guest Creative Travellers.

I couldn't wait to get started with the wonderful Time Traveller stamp set when it arrived last week along with two new Distress Inks - Salty Ocean and Gathered Twigs.

I inked my base tag using the two DIs and a mixture of blending and wrinkle free - I do this all the time!  Once dry I overstamped using Picket Fence Distress Stain with the wonderful background stamp from Papillon - I just love this effect. I left it to dry naturally and then overstamped again with the wheels stamp in Gathered Twigs, stamping off first on a piece of paper, so this was a second generation inking. I loved it so much I didn't want to cover it up!

One of the time travellers got painted in the same DIs and I added a few bits of tissue tape, labels and that fabulous negative strip which I never tire of.

Thank you for travelling with me this morning and I would suggest that you pop over to A Vintage Journey and look at the wonderful tags made by the rest of the Design Team - they are all so inspiring!

Have a lovely weekend
