I made two Sherlock Holmes tags, and had fun picking out words and phrases to fit with the theme. The focal image was stamped with Tim Holtz's Evolution set. I also made a fun dimensional light bulb . I used Ranger's Specialty Stamping Paper for the tag, but you can try the technique on different surfaces, and you will get different effects. You can use the techniques for any theme.
Ink Sherlock up with three shades Distress Oxide, starting with the lightest shade. Here I used Antique Linen, Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain. For the blue tag, I used Faded Jeans, Broken China and Cracked Pistachio. Mist and/or splatter the tag with water. Don't use too much. You can also cover some parts up with a scrap paper, to preserve the detail.
The words were die cut from the tag, and I colored a piece of modeling film with alcohol ink and glued to the back of the tags.
The light bulbs were also made from Clearly For Art Modeling Film, stamped and then colored with alcohol ink. I wrapped them to a memo pin with wire.
Thank you so much for looking at my project!
Happy stamping!
