Good afternoon all.
My turn once more over at STAMPlorations to inspire you to use your stencils. Today I have a tag to share with you.
I started by using one of the new stencils Prisms as a stamp....I inked it up with embossing ink, flipped it onto my card stock and used my brayer to ensure a smooth transition of ink. The piece was then heat embossed with white EP which provided a resistance to the DI inks I used to colour it. I added some texture to the background using a stamp from the Mini Mixed Media Backgrounds set. I then cut a tag shape using Luggage Tags Nesting Dies. The bird and sing sentiment from Trendy Birds 2 were stamped onto tissue paper and heat embossed before being adhered with gel medium. Hello Sunshine was added along with a pearl and some raffia to finish things off.
You've still got plenty of time to join our May Mixed Media challenge...just remember it's anything but a card and you must use a stencil.

Stunning tag Carol. Love the stencil x
ReplyDeletevery nice!
ReplyDeleteHi Carol, this is super. Love the soft colour and texture you added. I bought a brayer years ago and have only used it once, might just dust it off.
