Teasel tags by Helen Chilton

Well, I think they're teasels, they look like them to me!

This week I'm using one of Carabelle Studios' Unmounted Art Printing Squares and a Gelli Press.

I played around with these two colours:

Lay the stamp on top:

Which both prints into the paint and inks up the image:

Two tag prints pulled off:

One tag stamped with the paint image:

Here's a selection of printed and stamped tags:

I chose the three I wanted:

Then I stamped the teasels directly in paint - it doesn't matter that the text is reversed (these stamps are designed for use on a gelli plate) as I'm just going to cut the flowers and leaves out.

Work out where you want to put everything and hinge together:
