See Possibility Everywhere

I thought I would make something a litte different today, using Tim Holtz products.
I created my background using Distress Oxide Inks Vintage Photo, Fossilized Amber and Broken China.
I drew a body from white card and then coloured with Distress Oxide Broken China and then added a monoprint using Tim's number stencil and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink. I also added Remnant Rubs for added interest along with wings using Tim Holtz Detailed Butterflies Mini Die.
I added two Index Clips for added interest and texture along with some delicate splatters of Black Soot Paint.
I added a head which is a mould, and added Remnant Rubs to her face for added interest. I also included some chicken wire for added texture in the background.
I love how all the layers are visible in my design, I love adding lots of layers.
I added die cut pieces from Tim Holtz Cityscape, Metropolis die to the base of her dress, all coloured with Distress Oxides.
I would also like to enter this piece into the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge where the theme is "It's A Frame Up".

Thanks so much for stopping by, have a lovely week. Tracy x x

Tracy! I couldn't pass by this without giving you a WOW shout-out! I love your creative vision and this came together beautifully! I love the color palette and how this is rustic and pastel and grungy and lovely all at once. Very original and it's always a treat to see what that clever mind of yours is up to!
