Description:

Crafters are known for their inability to throw anything away! So when I recently saw THIS on Tim Holtz's blog, I thought it was a great way to use up some packaging that I've been hoarding.

For this swap you will pick 3 out of 5 from the following list and send to 1 partner:

  • 2x Masks (using clear plastic packaging) (minimum size 3.5"x5")

  • 1x Decorated Tag with Clear Overlay (Size 3 1/8" x 6 1/4") (Tag Base and Clear Overlay must be made from packaging and can be stamped, embossed, painted, embellished, crackled as you choose)

  • 5x Die Cuts (Cut from any craft brand recycled card, chipboard or paper packaging)

  • 10x Stamped Images (stamp onto recycled packaging or plain white card)

  • 1x Decorated Tag (Size 3 1/8" x 6 1/4") (using any recycled material)

Please share your completed swap on our Tim Holtz Addicts flickr group.

Awesome swap!! Can't wait to get started. I don't know why I thought I was so weird for saving packaging... I had no idea other people did it too until this group!

I guess I am having a bona fide brain fart this morning bc I am not understanding the mask option? I am thinking you are cutting out the shape from the plastic packaging to get the shape right? If so...how is it sticking when we try to use it as a mask?

@AsAlwaysAngela ... I hope you join the swap.:-)

@TurtleLove ... The mask will be used like a stencil, so you could tape it down, use non-permanent adhesive or go old school and hold it down with your hand. ;-)
