Compendium of Curosities Vol. 3 Challenge Week No. 16
This is my piece for the 16th CC3 Challenge sponsored by the Funkie Junkie Boutique. This time the technique is on page 50 of Tim's book - "Layering Stencils - Embossing". You can see the technique in my mosaic heart (can you tell it's a heart? I hope so!) using torn pieces of tags I created using the technique and the bubble layering stencil - one of my favorites : - ) I also used a piece of sheet music and Silhouette die cut letters - both positive and negative - to complete my collage. Thanksgiving is always a great time of year for reflection, but when you think about it, there's quite a difference between being thankful FOR things and being thankful IN all things. It takes time to develop an attitude of gratitude; to be able to be grateful when things around you are in pieces, but it's so good for you.
Tearing the tag?!! LOVE that! So different and unique and gives this a wonderful mixed media quality! Thanks so much for playing along with us on the Layering Stencil Embossing Challenge at CC3Challenge!
ReplyDeleteI SO love your tag! The suggestion of music behind the message of giving thanks is just lovely. I've been on a "gratitude journey" myself this past year and I appreciate you thoughts of being thankful "in". Thank YOU so sharing this tag. <3
ReplyDeleteHi! What a different and "inventive" take on Tim's layering stencil technique. Your torn paper that creates the heart is very creative. I like all of the layers of papers and patterns you've used to create this piece. Thanks for sharing with us at CC3C. <3 Candy
