Accoutrements #2 {a layout}

Earlier this week I shared my Tim Holtz accoutrements necklace. Well, once those buttons were out of the package I had to start wondering if it had possibilities too…

It does! Just grab some distress ink and GO!

See all those circles? I just inked the plastic packaging on my buttons, stamped, repeated, and repeated again. LOVE IT! I’m saving that plastic ‘stamp’ for future too.

This page was pure fun. I took two (4 x 6) photos that I ended up cropping down to about 3 x 4, a strip of paper, and a whole lotta fun stuff and just played…

Product used:
Tim Holtz Paper rosette, elegant flourishes, and tattered florals die cuts
Tim Holtz Vintage Shabby paper pack
Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Metal foliage
Tim Holtz Tissue Tape
Tim Holtz Fired Brick & Vintage Photo distress ink
Tim Holtz Journaling Ticket
Tim Holtz Rock Candy distress stickles
other: girls’ paperie letters, cardstock, buttons, pearl brad

I will share another project + video how-to to give you a better visual in a few days. Happy crafting!

    Fun! Too much! I think I should let Scrapbook Island, a scrapbook store in San Jose know about your terrific classes. Or is San Jose too far to travel to for you. Scrapbook stores on the sf peninsula have become a vanishing breed. They recently had a 2 day tattered angels class and Teresa Collins is teaching there later this month. be well, Robin

    I LOVE this layout and can’t wait to see the video you are going to show us. You are SO creative and I am going to have to kinda scraplift this,if you don’t mind!!! It seems to be a fast and fun one to do. Am i right or did it take longer than it looks?
