One Little Tag Craft Challenge #89

This week challenge for the One Little Tag Craft Challenge is to use book pages.  I often utilize book pages, pieces of sheet music and maps in my creations.  I will use pages in ways I don't usually do.  Such as a the paper folded dahlia on this tag.

A manila tag was sprayed with a gold shade and a green shade of Glimmer Mist.  Smooches ink was dotted on the tag to give the color more depth.  The dahlia was created with instructions for this youtube video by Robin of Njoystampin.  The outer petals were colored with Permapaque markers and a Recollections enamel  embellishment was placed in the center.  The sentiment sticker and and enamel dots were placed on tag.

A decorative napkin was adhered to a manila tag.  Script image from Cherry Pie stamps  was stamped over the image with Archival Ink Jet Black.  Peacock image (manufacturer unknown) was stamped on decorative paper with Archival Ink Jet Black and then sprayed with blue/gold glimmer mist.  Once dry, image was adhered to tag.  

Craft Warehouse Card Swap June 2014

The Craft Warehouse card swap theme for June 2014 was monocratmatic. Easy peasy you would think but the twist was you could not use white. Boy am I more addicted to white paper than I thought. I also challenged myself not to use blue which is the monocratmatic scheme I have used several times in the past. 

After several attempts this is what I came up. 

Ingredients

Kraft Card Base

Old Dictionary Page 

Straight Edge

Decorative Paper in Kraft color - 3 designs (Tim Holtz)

Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists (Coffee and Kraft)

Heidi Swapp Color Shine (Gold)

Brown Crown Washi Tape

Distress Stain (Walnut Ink)

Judikins Color Duster

Stamps. (Pears and Believe both unknown company)

Archival Ink (Jet Black)

Pitt Pen (Black)

Scissors 

Adhesives (ATG and glue stick.)

Steps

1. Spray each style of Kraft paper with a spray. Let dry. 

2. Using the straight edge to tear the dictionary page to size creating a deckled edge.  

3.  Stamp pears and sentiment on dictionary page using archival ink. 

4.  Using color duster add walnut ink color around the pears making sure edges are darker then the center. 

5. Stamp pears on each of the sprayed kraft paper. Cut out each pear seperately.

6. Using the glue stick, glue a different paper pear over the pear image on the dictionary page. Using the pitt pen fill in any area where the shapes don't match up perfectly. This is the paper piecing part.

7. Glue dictionary panel to card base. I used an ATG. 

8.  Apply washi tape to the bottom of the card. 

Here is a similar card but each pear is a different color and print and no mist was used. 

PS I liked the design so much I  sent this card to my parents for their anniversary.
