Sparklers Tags by Melina Dahl

Hello!
It´s
Melina here, and today I want to share 2 tags with you.
I
started by applying red, yellow and blue Distress Oxides to my tags. By
blending these three colours you get the orange and the green too. I then
activated the Oxides with Sparklers spray through different That´s Crafty! 8x8”
stencils.
For the
next layer I stamped with the script stamp from Textures Stamp Set 1, using
the same Distress Oxide colours. I also added a few splashes of black gesso on
my tags.
I
painted turquoise, yellow and red shimmer paints on a piece of watercolour
paper. I then stamped the butterflies with clear embossing ink and heat
embossed with white powder. The shimmer on those butterflies is fantastic!
I
stamped the “Fly-Fly-Flowers” on one of the tags with black ink, using my Tim
Holtz Stamping Platform. I also stamped the butterflies once more on the same
piece of painted paper as before. I cut them out and glued them down on my tag.
I glued
my shiny butterflies to the other tag and at last stamped the sentiments on my
tags using Lynne's Affirmations Set 2.
I used:
Distress Oxides - Fired Brick, Fossilized Amber, Broken China
That's Crafty! Sparklers Sprays - Pale Gold, Red
That's Crafty! Shimmer Paints - Turquoise, Red, Yellow
That's Crafty! 8x8 Stencils - TC8005,

Hope
you enjoyed!
Hugs
