This tag features the really cool technique that Tim shared back in March 2008 - using Perfect Pearls and Distress Ink refills in Ranger's Mini Misters. Over at Studio L3 Linda chose this technique for Grungy Monday 14.
I'll just list the ingredients used; I'm sure you can figure out how I made the tag. For the thread label I painted Claudine Hellmuth's Traditional Tan paint on chipboard, stamped the label in Fired Brick DI, cut it out, ran Tim's distress tool around the edge, smeared Frayed Burlap and Walnut Stain DIs over the edges, and added a piece of foam tape for dimension.
