Altering a Distress Ink Background to Make it Your OWN!
I don't know about all of you out there but I ADORE Tim Holtz, I've even been lucky enough to attend 2 of his live, in person classes and meet him - yes there is a little hero worship happening - how could I resist an amazing artist and a really genuinely nice guy!!
Tim creates THE MOST divine grungy backgrounds and projects and I love following along and creating with him. My problem begins when I've finished creating my Tim inspired background or piece - it's just not 'ME' it's not Sparkle Tarty enough lol! You know what I mean by now - it needs foil, sparkle, glitter - something shiny!
In this video, I take one of my Tim inspired backgrounds and give it the Sparkle Tart treatment to make it a little more unique.
