Tim Holtz TV Challenge - Idea-ology

 Hello 

Over on the Tim Holtz Addicts Facebook page for the past few weeks, Tim has been having a TV Challenge - go to Youtube, pick one of his videos of his chosen subject for the challenge, and make something that inspires you from it.

Well, this week is all about his line from Idea-ology. I have a few bits of this but often forget to use it, so this was a good challenge for me to do.

So, I watched the video from the Idea-ology Collection 2022  release and was very inspired by the cards that Cheiron Brandon, one of Tim's Design Team made, to make some of my own. 

Tim Holtz Products used:
Ranger Distress Ink Ground Espresso and Rusty Hinge
Various Distress crayons 
Idea-ology marbled design tape; paper dolls portraits; transparent layers; Halloween droplets; label stickers; Halloween ephemera pack; paper stash Wallflower

Here’s two that I made and I aim to make more and put them together to form a little book, or else they could just be used as cards.


Here's the process I used to make the card with the young lady...

First, I went through my stash and gathered all the bits together that I decided I was going to use.

I cut out the backing card out of Kraft card, rounded the corners and then distressed the edges with some Ground Espresso and Rusty Hinge Distress Inks.

I cut out the background paper from the Wallflower Paper Stash pad, with Tim's Deckle Trimmer from Tonic, and then I coloured parts the lady with Distress Crayons.

I added some Marbled Design Tape to the bottom before sticking on the background paper and design

From there, it was a matter of compiling the elements. To the background paper I added the transparency, then layered the young lady on top.

I attached the Halloween Droplets to the four corners, added a cut down piece from the Halloween Ephemera pack above the transparency (as the words were cut off and it looked odd to me), and fixed the owl with some foam tape to raise it up.

The label words 'In My Heart' were added to a piece of black card and then attached with black foam tape to raise it up too.

For the young man's photo, I put him behind the transparency but everything was compiled the same.

So there you have it, my Idea-ology make in the style of cards/book pages.
