One Little Tag Challenge #149

Paint a manila tag with purple acrylic paint, before dry stamp sequin waste stamp (Stampinton) in paint to lift off some of the paint.  Let dry.  Adhere scraps from the Mixed Media Wonky piece of text paper to tag.  With black acrylic stamp the two butterfly images (Rubber Stamp Concept).  Let dry.  Outline the images with a white Moltow Paint Pen.

Tip when using a marker of any type over acrylic paint or ink, make sure it is very very very dry.  If not then the pen will skip and get clogged.  I usually wait at least 24 hours.

One Little Tag Challenge #3

Started with a Kraft tag. I stamped the dogwood flower and sentiment (both from unity stamp company) in archival ink in sepia. Sepia ink was also brushed around the edge of the tag.  The image was outlined with an inktense pencil in white. The tag was embellished with household string and tissue tape by Tim Holtz.

The second tag is on a black tag. I stamped the background using a hero arts Christmas ornament with versamark and rubbed pan pastels in several metallic colors. I used the recollections alphabet stamps for the sentiment and stamped with versamark and pan pastels. The tag was embellished with recollections glitter tape, embroidery floss and a clear button.
