Creative Chemistry 102 Day 5

Day 5 is Embossing Effects

The first project is Rusting with embossing powder. Here is my effort!

Technique 2 is Sticky Powder with Glitter!

Technique 3 is Sticky Powder with Leafing!
Since I don't have leafing I used the glitter transfer paper.

And here are the last three tags!

Tag #4 is the Shabby Chic technique.

#5 is Tarnished Silver.

#6 is the Chalkboard technique.

I am sad that it is over but I have loved Creative Chemistry 102. Anyone can take the class it will always be available in Tim Holtz's website.

Creative Chemistry Day 4

ALCOHOL INKS (love them!)

Tag 1 has Faux tinting on the key and lock (not really Patina because these weren't silver to begin with) and Tinted Tinsel.
Tag 2 is Ombre (Love, love, love this technique)
Tag 3 is Monoprint
Tag 4 is Faded Layers (this is a cool effect)!

Can't wait to play some more!!!

The first tag (I will go across the top first l to r and then the bottom row) is Mixed-Media Layering.
Tag 2 and 3 are Embossing with Stencils (who knew you could do that?).
Tag 4 is Embossing through stencils.
Tag 5 is Stencil Stamping (so awesome!).
Tag 6 is Stencil Sketching.
Tag 7 is Ink Monoprint.
Tag 8 is Paint Monoprint.

Again, I learned so much. Lots of new techniques!

Unity's Itty Bitty Challenge - Day 5 - Friday

This is the Best Witches Itty Bitty with the inside sentiment from an old Itty Bitty. I am not sure if you can tell that the spider is on a transparent web from Karen Burniston's Spider and Spiderweb 3-D (Pop-Up). I also cut the bats, owl tree and pumpkin from Tim Holtz's "Halloween Shadows" decorative strip die. I love interactive cards! The paper is Echo Park's "Chillingsworth Manor".

I have been playing along with Tim Holtz's tags of the month.  I am super happy that he is waiting until Aug 3 for the next tag because he is leaving is "Linky" open for a couple of extra days.  I have been distracted by Unity Stamp Co's Challenges on Facebook! 

I like doing the tags because Tim teaches new techniques!

Here is Tim's tag

FWF - Unity - 5.31.13 (Thanks, Julie!)

This card is for my son-in-law's birthday. Love the Sizzix Tim Holtz embossing folder (Riveted Metal) with  metal paper (QuicKutz) and some alcohol inks. I added Tim's tissue paper with Collage Pauge glossy decoupage. The gears are Tim's Sizzix big die. The "Cherry on top of the sundae" (the sentiment!) is Unity's "It's Your Day"!
