Studio L3 Compendium of Curiosities  challenge this week is Configurations Boxes.  You can find some tips on making a box of you own in Tim Holtz, A Compendium of Curiosities II on pages 33 & 34.  I have not completed my box.  The back, sides and inside of the boxes are done.  I am still working on what I want in each individual box.

Below is my Tim Holtz June tag, which I did not get to submit due to power outage.  The picture is of my ancestors first car.   My Great Grandmother is driving and my Great Great Grandmother is in the back.  The color was added using distress ink and craft nibs.  The car charm was stamped on shrink plastic, cut out and then shrunk.  I then added some embossing powder.

Well if time to post again for theStudio L 3Compendium of Curiosities II challenge. It is already challenge #10. This week it's tissue wrap flowers.  The instructions can be found on page 37.  I decided I did not like my first try, need to work that technique some more. For the tag with the bird (second try at tissue wrap flowers) I play around with glue again.  I used glue to stamp and created a resist.  
This week the sponsor is  Funkie Junkie Boutique.  This weeks winner will receive a $25.00 gift certificate.
