Grungy Monday 06 ...






The lovely blogger decided to gobble up my 1st attempt at linking this tag to Grungy Monday ... so 2nd time lucky! Apologies if anyone was kind enough to visit and leave a comment. This week the challenge is to revisit this background technique that Tim demonstrated on the 12 Tags of Christmas, 2007, Day 8. This tag is made from all things Tim! I used Adirondack Lake Mist and Distress Inks Vintage Photo & Walnut Stain.

Coming to replenish your comments box!!! Just rewritten and reposted too and then it appeared.
I never tire of faded vintage tones and you do them so beautifully. Love the details and subtle focus on that little face.

I am sure I've said lovely things about this but assume naughty Mr Blogger gobbled it up. So, in summary, this is awesome. Fact!

Gillian, I love the beautiful vintage look you created for the GM06 challenge! The background looks great, and the rosettes are such a pretty touch. I love how you worked in the filmstrip, too-- it's perfect for this lovely piece!
