Well yes , you have guessed it is ANOTHER TAG!!!! So the theme over at Simon says is fathers day, so here is my fathers day tag!
Started by embossing some ranger foil sheet with this fab embossing folder, then covering lightly with black paint dabber.I have never used this before and this metal sheets before and t is fab!!! Love it!!!.Then I added die cut cogs, from canvas and card, coloured with DI.
The sentiment and image are from a new Tim set .I added some on the edge die cut cogs another new goodie!! I added string to keep with the masculine feel and a light bulb covered crackled ...I found this technique on Hels blog..., sorry not sure which post!
To complete I added dad using Tim Holtz letters and some ideaology .( if you saw this earlier the bottle was off another tag...oops!)
I am entering this for the following challenges:
