Summer Distress Inks

This week I received my Tim Holtz Summer Distress Inks. There are three beautiful colors that blend well together.

I always love to experiment on a few tags when I first get a set of stamp pads. I used several Sizzix /Tim Holtz embossing folders on these tags. After embossing the inks were stamped onto a craft sheet and sprayed with water. I then soaked up the ink with the tags. The middle tag is highlighted with a Picket Fence Distress Marker. I love the way this marker shows up on darker surfaces.

Here is one tag I finished. The butterfly stamp is by Studio 490. The stencils are Dylusions and the embossing folder is honeycomb by Tim Holtz.

Colours are so fresh and summery. Like your tag too. Good idea to experiment too!
