Riveted Patchwork

I just love the September tag from Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of 2012. Of course, I seem to feel that way every month, but this tag got me to use a technique that I've admired a lot, but never got around to trying. In addition, the Compendium of Curiosities II challenge is to try the riveted patchwork technique from p. 57 of Tim's book. By the way, this week's challenge is being generously sponsored by The Funkie Junkie.  Mark's Finest Papers - speedy Fox and Friends challenge is tags. For a change, I did vary the tag a little from Tim's tag. I added an image from Wendy Vecchi's stamps. He went so well with the steampunk feel of the tag. I love the little typewriter with the typed paper. The sentiment is a stamp from Tim Holtz. Well, I guess if I went on naming all of the other embellishments, it would be a litany of Tim Holtz.
