I collaged my background on to shaped chipboard - I then inked with Vintage Paper and Fired Brick Distress Inks. I stamped my image (Tim Holtz)with stazon on to tissue paper and added it with beeswax. I then cut my tag out of grunge paper and using CropoDile added eyelet - I inked it and then added my metal charm I fixed it to my piece with a brad. I finished off by adding a Tim Holt question mark and putting eyelets in to the top through which I threaded and beaded some cord.
Great piece Hilda, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Hope your day is filled with fun and laughter and mess and inks :D
