One Little Tag Craft Challenge #95


This tag is a collaboration between myself and my friend Becky.  She created the crazy cat using Tim Holtz stamps and die cuts.   

Tear pieces of music paper and adhere to a manila tag.  When dry, color with watercolor crayons and activate with water.  Stamp quote in Archival Ink Jet Black onto book paper.  The quote is from a Tori Amos song "Crucify."  Adhere the quote and the cat on the tag. 

One Little Tag Craft Challenge #94



The main image was created from a prompt of Cat Held's Mixed Media Morsels and inspired by a friend, Laurelle. Here is the video of Cat Held demoing the technique.  It is surprisingly easy but makes some dramatic paper.  I made about 5 pages of it in one setting.  I am sure it will show up in more of my tags.

Color a manila Tag with with metallic watercolor crayons.  Using a Tim Stencil and a baby wipe rub away the design creating a ghost image.  Create background text paper using the Mixed Media Morsel painted circle technique.  Using a Dylusions mask, cut out image of female from the created paper.  Adhere to tag. Outline with dashes using an india ink marker. Adhere a strip of the created paper along the edge.  Adhere the line from a book.  The line is "She thought of the love in the heathen woman's breast, from an Andersen's Fairy Tale.
