Kraft Resist Technique on Journey Tag

Enjoy the Journey w border

One of my very favorite techniques from Tim Holtz’s book Compendium of Curiosities Volume 2 is Resist on Kraft Paper. This technique is featured in this week’s challenge at Linda Ledbetter’s Studio L3. I already submitted a scrapbook page using this technique (see previous post), but it was so much fun that I felt compelled to make a tag as well!

Almost everyone who uses Tim’s techniques most certainly has an “Enjoy the Journey” design somewhere in their stack of Tim projects. Realizing I have never used that theme, off I went, using two of my favorite colors, Dusty Concord and Peacock Feathers.

This tag will probably be used on a scrapbook layout with some pictures of my grandson’s “new” vehicle:

Love how you left so much open space so we can really see your resist and that wonderful stamped image. And wow, the purple is fab against the kraft. That little jalopy charm is so perfect as a finishing piece! Totally terrific tag, Barbara!

Very yummy colour combination - and it's going to look even more amazing if it's on a page with a photo including your grandson's glorious hair! Great tag!
