Compendium of curiosity's challenge no 11 , Effect powders

For the Compendium of curiosities 3, challenge 11, I made a tag to go onto my husbands 60th Birthday card.  Again it's a great technique , but you will have to buy Tim's book to get the low down
As I am not allowed to give details here, in respect for all Tim's work on his book.

If you want to join in there are some great prizes from Tim Holtz & Mario his manager (box of Tim's goodies !)  & on the odd number challenges (this one !) we have Inspiration Emporium giving
Away a £50 gift voucher , find them here -: http://www.inspirationemporium.com




Above photo is the tag, and below photo is the finished card



I used a couple of other Tim Holtz techniques for this tag.
Dimensional collage fragments, this is from CC1 book.
It's the tiny clear tag at the top left, I was rather tickled to fing a number plate on one of Tim's papers that was AG , this is my husbands initials !
So I added the little 60 as well & a couple of other bits to go under the clear frame.



The base colour on the tag is paint marbling , this is in the current book
But I missed this challenge , so am using the technique now on here.
See below photo.





Another lovely Tim technique is to use the shadow press debossing folders
(They de-boss) with inks to highlight and a pen run just inside the letters





See below photo of highlighted de bossing and yet another of TH Techniques
Which is to use tiny brads and hammer them flat !




Below is a photo of the lovely framelits I used for this challenge technique , I love this
Compass , with the stamps and die cuts all in one , fabulous !



Here below is a close up of my Effect powders technique
