Welcome to another installment of the Compendium of Curiosities Challenge, Vol. 3,
hosted by Linda at Studio L3. This is
the eleventh challenge in where we work through the techniques of Tim Holtz
from, you guessed it…his 3rd Volume of the Compendium of
Curiosities!! As in the past challenges,
we can’t give details on the challenge, so don’t ask, but do go get your own
copy of Tim’s fabulous book. Also, InspirationEmporium has offered an extremely generous $50 Gift Certificate for all the
odd numbered Challenges! So grab a copy, and join in to play!! All the deets are here, at Linda’s blog!
OK, onto the Technique, or in this case, cool Tim Holz Product! First...Shocking… for someone
who ran a photography business for a number of years, you’d think I’d have some
photos of family members…but alas, no.
So into my TH Stash and his found relatives pack I did foray. So I've
decided this picture can be of my husband’s parents, on North Beach in Chatham
MA., where in fact he did grow up…so not that far fetched. And the stamp is actually Chatham Light. I found a set of the Outer Cape Lights from Blockhead Stamps when
they were closing their NY shop and moving to New Mexico. It was in the remnant
bin, which I usually don’t have the patience to go through. but am so glad I
did. Too bad they didn't have the rest
of the Cape lights! Finished with the TH
Die cuts, a sea gull stamp from a set I think is from Crafty Individuals…
So there it is; my in-Laws, a few years before
my Sister in Law was born, enjoying the beach between the tides (and therefore
work-FiL was a commercial fisherman)
Now go visit the Curiosity Crew’s sites…there
are some amazing pieces there this week..and then join the fun..there is still time! Have a great week everyone.
This is is fabulous Kim. I just love the stamped image and that seahorse is wonderful. Would look great in my Holiday album...hint...hint!
