Yes imagine beauty, even on a wet
autumn day dear friends. I did that when creating this tag,
to my That’s Blogging Crafty! Monday Post.
I started with the fantastic white/greyboard
tag and directly on the white side
painted the beautiful Teal, thinned
with a little water. Also the embellishments - flower and feathers were painted
with the same Teal but not thinned so much!!
After the tag had dried, I first
stamped with the scripture stamp, from Texture Stamp Set 1, here and there,
using Archival Ink Coffee and then I stenciled the Circles Dinky stencil in the
sides of the upper tag and in the lower tag, I used Dinky stencils: Enchanted and Believe, the
words Imagine and Beauty, using texture paste for it all.
While left to dry, the feathers were
stamped (Archival Ink - Coffee ) with another of the stamps from the Texture
Stamp Set 1. I used the feather stamp, to give details to the greyboard
feathers.
The flower was given details using
one of the flower stamps from Electica by Scrapcosy, which fitted perfectly in
the middle of the greyboard flower. I doodled a bit with the white Multi
Surface paint and added dots with a Ranger Stickles, to give a little shimmer -
also the feathers had tiny dots of beautiful shimmer. J
As I wanted to add more texture I
cut a long thin piece of fabric from my stash, dyed it in thinned Chestnut
Brown and after dry, I wrinkled it to sit around the flower and adhere to it
with hot glue gun.
The tag now dry, was sprayed around
the stenciled areas with water thinned Chestnut Brown, I usually use Infusions
for this but tried the paint and it worked beautifully!!
Flower was now adhered to tag and I
painted a stem using a brown Posca. In a bare spot on the tag I also used the
flower stamp and the feathers were adhered as leaves, after cutting their stems
a bit shorter. I made the tiny bow from the same fabric used for the flower and
adhered to the left side bottom tag. Last thing to do, was tie a tiny piece of
the fabric through the hole in the tag.
Thank you for taking a look, dear
friends - I wish you all, a lovely Monday.
Hugs and love
