This week the challenge is ,,,,,,,,

ANYTHING GOES

As always Heidi will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store!
We are showcasing Tim Holtz Products this week, you don't have to use them, but if you have them we would love to see them  :-)


I was unsure about what to make for this challenge,, maybe a tag ?? but then I popped over to the Tim Holtz Blog for inspiration and GUESS WHAT !! He has a challenge asking us to make flowers using his Tattered Florals Die !!  YAY !!

Tim has a fab tutorial using his new Distress Paint’s,,, which I don’t have yet ,, he also used linen and burlap fabrics ,,, don’t have those either ,, so I had to improvise but I am thrilled with how this turned out and I WILL wear it :-)

I will link all the products I used at the bottom of this post.

I attached the flower to a chain but it is removable so I can attach it to a bag, jacket,,, anything really ! :-)  doesn’t it look FAB on my autographed Tim Holtz bag !! a treasured possession :-)

Hi Lorraine - this is a simply stunning creation, and it looks just at home on a chain as it does dangling from your bag! Thank you for sharing your beautiful project at Incy Wincy Designs this week in our "Anything But A Card" challenge.

Hi Lols, I'm perusing the fabulous entries in Tim's tattered florals challenge. (I have the die on my wishlist which sadly is where it has to stay for now!!) Your flower is stunning! Love the colour and the texture.
