Creative Chemistry 101 Week 4 Challenge Design 2

The second design I made the Tim's Challenge involved a background stamp and the butterfly Sixxiz Alterations die.  I love how this design turned out.

Creative Chemistry 101 Week 4 Challenge Design 1

Tim Holtz is offering his Creative Chemistry 101 and 102 class again as a lead in to his new class Creative Chemistry 103 which begins in August.  You can find more about the classes at Online Card Classes.  I took the two classes she they were originally offered and I can honey say they changed the way I do paper crafting.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                

Part of the updating of 101 and 102 include occasional challenges and this week-Week 4 Challenge included Embossing Basics.  I won't go over the exact details in how these were made because. that is part of Tim's class.

12 Tags of 2016 April

This month Tim continues his 12 Tags of 2016 Remix with Faux Mosaic and Wood Grain. The remix factor was the use of Tim's new Faux Mosaic kit and his new WoodGrain cardstock. I don't have either of those items so I kept things a little old school....eer...I didn't remix I guess.

Tim's version:



My version:

 I used silver glitter paper on the wings and Minc foiled typing paper on the body of my dragonfly.
 I used Ranger Liquid Platinum embossing powder for my "grout" and covered the mosaic pieces with Glossy Accents.

 I embossed the woodgrain using WOW dull white embossing powder and applied several colors of brown Distress Inks.
