A review of Tim Holtz's Tissue Tape!!

Hi everyone! It's Jenny here and I'm reviewing the Tim Holtz tissue tape for you guys! When Telah asked me to choose a product that I had not worked with, this was one of the first things that came to mind.

Well, first off, it was a fabulous complement to the Glitz Designs "Love Games" papers that Jill sent...they were made for each other!!

The tape is really easy to use...it's thin and a little opaque...so that whatever you are putting it on still comes thru a bit.

I loved that it easily peels back off if you place it and don't like it.

I like that one roll of this stuff will probably go a long way! I only used little bits of it on the pages I made for the reveal, but am currently thinking it would make a nice frame around a picture or around an entire page!

It would also pleat REALLY well...and since it's already sticky, you don't have to apply adhesive first!

It's also really great in Mixed Media Art!!! Here's a sneaky peek of a canvas I've been working on...it really adds to the dimension of it! And it seems to take paint/modge podge really well...


In this one, you can see how the image underneath shows through:

Try this stuff!! You will LOVE it! I know I do!

Love this Jenny! I've looked at this several times and even seen Tim Holtz use it on his blog. I just might need to get me some. It's pretty cool stuff! Can't wait to see the whole canvas!
