YaY! Finally I had a chance to participate in my dear friend Linda’s Challenge! Which is the Compendium of Curiosities Challenge and she’s currently on #27! Yes I’m sure you’ve heard that name before! It’s the title to one of Tim Holtz’s technique books. It’s a great book, if you don’t already have it and enjoy Tim’s techniques, this is a must have!
The way the challenges work, Linda chooses a technique from one of the many techniques in the book (there’s about 36 in total). On Mondays she posts the technique name, the page it’s found in the book plus a sample she’s made.
The technique this week is Distress Misting Masks and it’s found on page 60 of the Compendium.
After I had done the distress misting masks technique, I then stamped a script background and sprayed regular perfect pearl mist over the entire tag. I added some pearls, trim and a crackle painted heart to finish the tag off. What fun!
Thanks Linda for organizing the challenge! You’ve been doing an incredible job! I can’t believe there’s only 9 challenges left!
But there’s still lots of time to play!
Have you gotten a lot of snow where you are? I am achy all over from shoveling and shoveling snow (Jeff’s on set today so it was just ‘lil ‘ole me). A hot tub soak would be great just about now, one problem though…I don’t have a hot tub. It just shows how out of shape I am! lol
Thanks for stopping in today!
Love,


This is just gorgeous Spike! Love the shimmeriness (is that a word?) of your tag!

I love what you did with this, fabulous tag! Glad that you have joined in the challenge.
Yay, Spike! It’s so great to see you at the CCC, and great to see your stunner of a masked tag, too! This is such a gorgeous homage to Valentine’s Day. The shimmer and those fabulous roses just sing “Romance,” and the tiny diamonds and promise of a “Lifetime” second that emotion. I love it. And I’m pretty crazy about you, too, come to think of it!
