I just love the names of the Tim Holtz Distress Inks - Tattered Rose, Crushed Olive, Stormy Sky, and two of my favourites, Scattered Straw and Tumbled Glass. Where does he get some of these names??
Well, as it so happens, Tim rang me the other day to say that he's out of ideas and needs us Peas to help him come up with new names. (Actual conversation may not have occurred ).
So, I'm going to name a colour - a plain, boring colour - and the next person to post has to think up a cool, fancy Tim Holtz-type name for an ink of that colour. Got it?
e.g. If I said: "Green"... You could say...
"Trampled Moss"
When you've come up with a fancy name, then please select another plain, boring colour for the next poster to come up with a fancy ink name for.
So, the first colour is:
RED |
