Practice Kindness Mixed Media Tag

 

Hello, happy Thursday! I finally got my hands on Tim Holtz' newest Paper Dolls, and this one is from the Groups pack. I had to separate this handsome guy from his best gal to make him fit my tag.

 I started by making my tag using Tim's Bricks and Digits mini stencils with texture paste, Embossing Glaze, Grit Paste, Crackle Paste, and Distress Spray Stain and Spray Oxides, and crayons all layered to make a grungy chipping brick wall. Glaze is Fired Brick, sprays are Hickory Smoke, Black Soot and Speckled Egg, crayons are Black Soot and Chipped Sapphire. 

I colored the paper doll's pants with Chipped Sapphire crayon and his vest with Distress Embossing Glaze in Speckled Egg using the bullet embossing pen to get the powder exactly where I wanted it. I added smudges of the crayon left on my craft mat.  In the background there's a torn portion from Field Notes Collage Wrap layered with a clock face from an older Curiosities sticker book.

And another piece of the Collage Wrap at this feet. He is sitting on layers of torn and wrinkled ephemera from the Keepsakes and Urban Layers packs.

And to finish my tag, I chose some old  Small Talk stickers. Couldn't we make a difference if we all practiced a little kindness?  Thanks for visiting! Sara Emily
