So the recipe is : white, transport and metal....
so here is mine :
So i started by adding metal DIY tape to my tag, embossing suing this fab Tim Folder...and then using Tims fab enamelled metal from Compendium of curiosities....love this look..This involves layering/swiping paint onto the tag , then adding clear embossing powder and heating...
The image is a Tim one Which I stamped and white embossed using detail embossing powder and added black distress ink using a waterbrush..
Now onto the fun bit the idea-ology and embellishing!! I added cogs...(I know you will be shocked!!!) wire (I know even more shocking!), film strip with rub ons on....some more yummy idea-ologyand some wings.
Finally some scrummy seam binding ...coloured with picket fence distress and black soot distress( watered down) to finish.
make sure you hope here to see the other fab makes form my team mates and also maybe dream with us..
have a fun and inky day!
