Hello! I’m delighted to share the third of the samples that I made for Tim Holtz CHA 2016 booth.
This sample was created for the Tim Holtz Alterations Sizzix booth, using the new Gadget Gears 2 Bigz die.
For the top layer I stamped distress watercolor cardstock with a linen background stamp and vintage photo distress ink. I die cut 3 circles with the sized circle die set, embossed with the gears texture folder and inked.
I covered grungeboard with foil tape and die cut with the gadget gears 2 die. Dabbed with alcohol inks to give an aged look.
I die cut 3 circles with the sized circle die set from several sheets of thick card and inked the edges. I adhered recycled sizzix die packaging under the 3 circles and then layered the gadget gears between the thick card layers. The bottom layer is a sheet of paper from the new dapper paper stash.
I added moments die cut from foil covered card, dabbed with alcohol ink and mounted onto a strip of paper from the dapper paper stash. The edges were covered with the new dapper tissue tape and I added idea-ology mini corners to finish.
A big thank you to Paula, Mario and Tim for inviting me to be part of this.
CHA Product previews and BTS from the show are on Tim’s blog. Many of the new products are shipping now or available for pre-order.

The gears are so cool – love the glow of the alcohol on the metallic surface.

This is such a fabulous way to use the new cogs die (I know how big they are) and just seeing parts of them adds so much interest! Great colouring on the cogs too! Anne x
was lookin online for inspiration for my new cogs n gears dies and this is really awesome! Love your creation ♥
Loving this Zoe. I was just flicking through the Internet wondering how many gears dies Tim had brought out, and this gorgeous art of yours popped up. I love the orangy brown you’ve used here. Juicy! And the hidden aspect is clever too!
