You can find the explanation for the rusty embossing background HERE on Tim's blog where he shows how he has used it with a Christmas tag. There are some fabulous pieces as inspiration by Linda, the lovely hostess and two fabulous guest designers Barbara and Rinda.
Mine has the car, map and a bit of the nuts and bolts as Gingersnap's overall focus for the month is Steampunk and you know me I love to play in this genre.
This looks out of focus, but the glossy embossing hasn't helped on the truck. But you can see how I have added the journalling.
TH die ATC and corners.
DIs - weathered wood, vintage photo, frayed burlap, walnut stain and black soot.
Clear embossing powder.
Old book of AA maps and bits from my oddments box.
Have a good day and thanks for stopping by to have a look at my tag today.
luv and hugs {brenda} xoxox

Love this tag Brenda...especially the nuts and washers ~ and the colours on the rusty effect really finish off the maleness of the tag.
