This is a formica chip from the hardware store covered on the left with tissue tape, the clock and chain
at the top are from the 7 Gypsies rubon collection, a little square of Graphics 45 paper and a wonderful ornate charm to set
it all off. It has a small binder clip at the top and you could add a keychain to take it with you where ever you go
to remind you to create.
Tim Holtz Idea-ology Tissue Tape-Journeyman~This is a sheer tape with a matte finish. The
designs are very nice on it with some color on tickets from theatre and other places, then fountain pen nibs, parts of pharmacy
labels and many other things. Very nice. They are perfect for adding a special touch to many projects. I
often use them when I am altering a store bought composition book. I will put it on different pages from top to bottom
or from side to side. I think they would look great covering a wood bangle bracelet that seem to be very popular now.
You get 2 rolls with 16 yards on each roll and the width of the tape is 3/4".
$8.79
Although this wood bangle bracelet was not covered with the tissue tape- I just wanted to let your mind wander to the
possibilities of how it would look on something like this. Simple, yet what a wonderful gift for yourself or your special
friend.
Tim Holtz Idea-ology Tissue Tape-Sketchbook~Similar to the tape above, sheer with a matte finish, this
tape has 2 rolls, 16 yards each and 3/4" wide. The first roll has beautifyl butterflies and moths and the 2nd, I think,
it a collage of botanical names and cancelled postage. I love the black and white- well off white, contrast. I
still love some of the old black and white movies and love black and white photos. Color is wonderful but sometimes
the black and white thing can speak so much louder. Cover boxes, lids, add to scrapbooks, collage, canvas-let your imagination
go.
$8.79
Tim Holtz Idea-ology Hanger Clips~ Is it a paper clip or a hanger or both? You can use it to display
photos or mementos. I knew a gal one time who had a string across her craft room and used that to hang cards and other
things from it- was pretty neat. You could use it to hang ATC's you have received or made. Use on altered art,
scrapbooks, bookmaking-get that imagination going. Pkg of 24 clips in silver tone color.
$3.89
Tim Holtz Idea-ology Reinforcers~These are fun. Reinforcers were used back in the olden times,
ha ha- to reinforce pages in a binder or tablet. Now they are cool with pretty designs on them and great color.
It comes in a packet similar to a matchbook and it has 5 pages with 20 reinforcers on each page for a total of 100.
They appear to be all different also. Each one measure approx. 5/8" in diameter and the center punches out so you can
actually use the little center dot too-possible as a period punctuation mark at the end of a sentence. New for 2011.
$1.89
Tim Holtz Idea-ology Plaquettes~I like these, if you add up all the numbers you have my current age,
ha ha or maybe it just feels like that. You get 9 different numbers, white enamel with black numbers and 18 long fasteners.
Each plaquette measures approx. 1 3/16" across and approx. 3/4" high. Somewhere I have seen these used as or in a necklace
and was very neat. They maybe aren't for everyday use but they are perfect for that special project- book, scrapbook,
jewelry, altered are or mixed media. New for 2011.
$7.89
Link to Ranger Black & White Enamel
You could also create this cool look with Ranger Black & White Enamel. You could use a brass charm
blank- we have many of them- color it white and write in it with the black enamel- again creating a unique one-of-a-kind embellishment.
Tim Holtz Idea-ology Memo Pins~These metal pins have a pointed end to them so you can stick them through
fabric, paper, ribbon, etc. Attach a photo, collage, artwork, etc. to your project for a great pop of attention.

Tim Holtz Idea-ology Adornments~Since I seem to have a real thing for the birds of late, this set appeals
to me, especially with the larger swoopy bird. It also comes with 2 crowns, 1 star, 1 fleur de lis, 2 birds, wings and
1 heart for a total of 8 different pieces. They are a very solid charm and flat backed so that you can adhere them with
your favorite Articus Studio adhesive. The bird, heart, fleur de lis, large crown and star also have a ring at the top
to allow for dangling off your project. As a frame of reference for size, the large crown measures approx. 1 3/8" wide
and approx. 1" high, including the ring. The detail is very nice and I love the look of pewter and this is what they
resemble to me although it is an antique nickel finish.
$8.89
Tim Holtz Idea-ology Tissue Tape~Each of the tissue tapes comes 2 rolls per package and 16 yards on
each roll or 32 yards in toto. The tape is a bit transparent so colors you use it on top of will show through- but muted,
very cool. Colors on the web may differ slightly from the actual roll due to scanning process. This is thin paper-
so thin you have a hard time finding the beginning of the roll but very durable.
We have these styles to select from of the tissue tapes:
Traveler- this package has 1 roll that is a continuing roll of calendar & the 2nd roll
looks like ledger paper. Both look like black onk on a light cream paper.
Marketplace- this package has 1 roll that is theatre ads and the 2nd roll is an assortment of
different numbers.
Nostalgic- this package has 1 roll of pretty script, maybe from letters and some canceled postageand
the 2nd has French words, maybe ads (my roll does not have the blue look in the picture).
