Tim Holtz Mixed Media – Blossom Vignette Box

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

I’ve got a really special mixed media project to show you today using the most beautiful floral die set from Tim Holtz called the Sizzix Thinlits Blossom Die! This very large floral and leaves set is going to be just perfect for our vignette box project! I’ll show you how to color and layer this flower and leaf for extra dimension.

I thought it would be fun to do the coloring using the Tim Holtz Distress Crayons in a variety of pinks and purples. I’ll give you a little tip for being able to easily color with these crayons! We will also be using the crayons to add color to some of the metal embellishments!

The box will be the base of this project and is from the Tim Holtz idea-ology – Vignetter Boxes – Squares set.

We will be using a ton of Tim Holtz products today including the quote chips, droplets, ribbons and bows, word tags, velvet trim, vintage flair, odds and ends, and butterflies! By adding all of these unique items we can give our project lots of interest and dimension. This is a great time to dig through your own personal stash of embellishments to se what you may already have to add to your project!

Let’s also grab some beautiful paper from the Tim Holtz Abandoned Paper Pad. This will have some of the pinks and purples that we need to make this flower pop!

For a bit of a metallic look on various pieces of this design as well as the box itself, we will be using the Tim Holtz Distress Foundry Wax in Sterling. I’ll talk about this product in some additional detail in the video, since there are a few important things you should know about this very special and unique product!

In this video I will show you lots of fun techniques and ideas for adding interest to your mixed media projects! So let’s go ahead and get started!!!

Tim Holtz Mixed Media Gentlemen Card – Part 1 (Texture Fades, Embossing Glaze, Foundry Wax and so much more!)

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today I am very excited to be showing you a Mixed Media card using the wonderful Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits Gentlemen Die Set! In this set you will get three gentlemen dies and a fun little umbrella and cane!

I have decided to show you this wonderful set in a Two Part Series. I didn’t want each of the videos to be too long….so I have split it into two parts. In Part 2 we will be using the Gentlemen dies again and also the new Lost Shadow Ink, the Distress Embossing Glaze, the Bold Text Die Set, and a fun three part stencil. This video will be available very soon!

So let’s get started on the card for today by using the Tim Holtz Sizzix 3-D Tree Rings Texture Fades. This will give us a great textural woodgrain background.

Now we can add some TH Distress Oxide Sprays to give this background some color using Lumberjack Plaid, Walnut Stain and Pumice Stone. These colors will blend together perfectly!

To give the background some added texture we are going to add the TH Distress Glaze in Lumberjack Plaid. Keep in mind that this is a translucent powder…so you can see all the colors underneath the glaze…which makes it so unique!

Let’s die cut several of the Gentlemen out of the TH Black Heavystock. We can layer up quite a few of these to create a thick chipboard-like embellishment.

We can do some quick spattering on the background and the Gentleman. Now let’s add some fun ephemera from the Tim Holtz idea-ology collection and a few metal stars!

Finally, we will be adding some TH Distress Foundry Wax. This will give the card a metallic look on the background and some of our embellishments. I will discuss a few tips and tricks for using this amazing product!

Tim Holtz Mixed Media Christmas w/ Foundry Wax, Grit Paste and Baseboards!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let’s create a fun mixed media holiday project with loads of wonderful products from the Tim Holtz Collection!

To set the scene for our project we will be using a pretty Tim Holtz idea-ology Baseboard from the Christmas/Noel Collection. These baseboards have a thick, chipboard type quality to them. Let’s add some texture to this baseboard by adding some TH Distress Grit Paste in Snowfall. This will dry clear and give and icy/snowy texture. We can use this baseboard to create a window for our scene which will include a beautiful deer from the TH Sizzix Thinlits Darling Deer Die Set. We will color the deer using a sponge dauber and some TH Distress Inks.

We can now add some snow drifts and then we can ink up the background for the scene again using some TH Distress Oxide Inks!

Next we can go back to the Baseboard collection and grab a few stars and a sentiment strip. To embellish these stars we can add a TH idea-ology Mirrored Star to the center of each of these chipboard stars. This will add some sparkle!

Now let’s use a beautiful poinsettia die cut from the TH idea-ology Worn Wallpaper Scraps. This set contains several patterned papers, pretty die cuts, and some border strips!

We can add a cute little bow using the TH Sizzix Thinlits Fireside Die Set. Let’s layer this up to add extra dimension.

Once we have attached all of our elements to our project we will be using the TH Distress Foundry Wax in the Gilded (golden color). We can apply this using a sponge dauber and we want to be sure to heat set this foundry wax in order to attach it to our project and bring out the shine! I’ve added it to the stars and around the edges of the baseboard. It just makes everything pop!!!

Add a bit of crystal glaze to the berries for even more dimension and a few metallic pearls in a matte gold to the center of the poinsettia and bow!

The final finishing touch is to add a spattering of white gesso to the entire project for a gorgeous snowy look and to tie the entire project together!

I’m making my mixed media project as a gift, so I am going to include a little black wooden easel to hold the project. This makes a great gift for a co-worker, friend, teacher….I think just about everyone would love to have a fun handmade holiday gift!
