Funky Purple Tag

  Hello!

This week I decided to create a large tag...

1) I started by spraying Wilted Violet and Seedless Preserves distress oxide sprays onto a large tag.  Then to create a more chalky look I spritzed some more water, then added droplets of water which I then lifted with some kitchen towel...

2) To bring a bit more lightness into the tag I added some white gesso in patches, blending it in with my finger...

3) Using the Art Journal Elements #2 stamp set, I stamped one of the circles using embossing ink then heat embossed with white superfine powder...

4) Then from the same stamp set I stamped the lines using black Hero Arts ink...

5) To add extra detail I used one of the tag inkables with Villainous Potion distress ink, then glued on some of the Dylusions collage elements...

6) Finally I added a sentiment from the Dylusions back chat stickers and drew around them using some black watercolour pencil...

Here are the products used:

* Distress Oxide Sprays

* Distress Ink Pads

* White Gesso

* Hero Art Inkpad  - Black

* Art Journal Elements #2

* Tag Inkables

* Dylusions Collage Paper & Back Chat Stickers

* Ranger Superfine White Embossing Powder

Thank you for looking and happy crafting!

  Hello!

This month over in the Bee Crafty group on Facebook there is a challenge to create a project using just one colour plus black and white.  So this week I decided to use the challenge for my card...

1) First I decided that the colour I wanted to use was Bundled Sage, so started by blending through the Fernando large inkable using distress ink.

2) Next I used the same inkpad to stamp the leaves from the T-Rex set around the edges of the card.  Then I added the definition from the set.

3) To make it stand out I used black archival to stamp the main T-Rex image then painted some of the green ink onto the image that I had smooshed onto my blending mat.

4) To tie in I stamped the definition out again but this time in black ink before matting onto black and then a white card blank.

Here are the products that I used:

* Bundled Sage Distress Inkpad

* Archival Inkpad

* Fernando Large Inkable

* T-Rex Stamp Set  Half Price in the End of Line Section

Thank you for looking and happy crafting!
