Studio L3 Grungy Monday #02

It's week two for Studio L3's Grungy Monday challenge. These challenges will explore Tim Holtz's techniques and products.
This weeks challenge is using "Distress Ink with Studio Multi Medium".
First, I covered a tag with a piece of novel paper.
Then, I cut a mask using the branch tree die, placed it on the tag and misted with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Starfish and Adirondack Color Wash in Espresso. Dried tag.
Next I cleaned off the mask and I replaced the mask back on the tag and covered the misted tree with Mutli Medium and dried it completely.
I inked the tag with Stormy Sky, Broken China, Shabby Shutters and Bundled Sage Distress Inks. And wiped the ink off the tree.
Then I created the blossoms. I used the Martha Stewart hydrangea punch, misted them with Starfish Glimmer Mist and covered the tree with them. I finished them by painting on some Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam in Chandelier.
I sprayed some tissue paper with Sunshine Glimmer Mist and created a ruffle around the "Wander" charm and attached it to the tag.
I then attached the embossed labels using the Tiny Attacher.
The final step was to mist a piece of seam binding with Starfish Glimmer Mist and attached it to the tag.




Happy Grungy Monday!
