Week 17 of the amazing Compendium of Curiosities Challenge over on the amazing blog of Linda at Studio L3. If you have not hopped over there - you are really missing out. We are all quite obsessed with anything Tim Holtz - I've finally found 'my peeps' - those who love this art as much as I do. This weeks challenge was 'fragmented charms'. All the details are on page 64 of Tim's fabulous book. I backed the charms with the Lost and Found papers, used many of Tim's stamps, and of course Distress Inks (aged mahogany, stormy sky, and pumice stone). This was a new technique to me, so took a while to get the hang of it. It was fun to dig through the 'stash' to find just the right images for the tiny charms. Have a wonderful week creating new art....

Great tag Jane! I love how you did your background and yes the fragments can sometimes not be as easy as they should be. Really hoping it cools down here soon!

Jane, this is a fabulous tag! I love your use of those tiny Lost and Found images for the charms, and the background is gorgeous. I always smile when I see that sweet little bird stamp! Great job, as always!!!
