Riding the exercise bike to retreat!

GrungyMonday6

Well, I put it off as long as I could and then decided to combine this challenge with our May Lottery challenge over at PAO. This week we're in the wayback machine and using one of Tim Holtz's 12 tags of Christmas as our foundation. I used some white paint along with the Weathered Wood and Frayed Burlap Distress Inks. I made a packing tape transfer of a vintage image and added a TH phrase stamp and tissue flower topped with one of my own handmade dictionary paper flowers. Hop on over to Studio L3 to check out all the cool entries this week. mmmm......I'm having trouble adding links today and will need to troubleshoot.....sorry for the bother.

    Love how the texture of the image shows through the image transfer. The colors work well together.

    Rachelle, this is stunning! It truly looks like an antique, and the faux woodgrain is just perfect. The packing tape transfer is fabulous, and the image is so beautiful.
