Tim Holtz for March, 2011

As usual, it is the last day of the month and I'm scrambling to get the Tim Holtz tag finished and posted to his website. Where did March GO?!!!  Probably the same place January and February did.  Oh well...  
I veered slightly from Tim's original concept; I do not have the craft tags yet and I guess I was just in a different mood.
I  started blending from the bottom up using distress inks: Tumbled Glass, Broken China and a touch of Stormy Sky.  The middle is Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade.  Top is Stormy Sky and Dusty Concord.  I edged with Stormy Sky.  Then, I flicked water and dried.  The trees are stamped with Ranger Archival ink and the stamp is Impression-Obsession Cover-A-Card, Tree Line (CC099).

    Thanks, Winnie, for taking the time to look at the tag and I certainly appreciate the comments. I'm glad you like the tree background; I wasn't certain it would work with the butterflies so it is nice to hear you liked it.
