You are simply the best - Always Fun Challenge #124

Monday August 19, 2019

 

hello and it's time for another challenge at

 Always Fun Challenge #124

Our theme this week is MAKE A TAG

 

This is my tag.. I do like making them but I always seem to not know what to do while designing or what to do afterwards.. (although I have been making tags last few weeks..) I can only use so many in my bible journaling or planners but here's one more..

So for my tag.. I used a Tim Holtz tag and then dug through my scraps and found this grayish greenish paper. I stamped some various Club scrap stamps all over it and  Simon says sentiment. I then adhered it to the tag and cut the excess off. I went over different areas with stripe washi tape. I used Distress crayon and went around the edges. I added some Taylored Expressions butterflies and some acrylic dots. I added a brad to the top.

So thankful for this day

Sunday August 18, 2019

 

I thought I had added this card.. but I've been having so much internet problems it's probably out there in cyber space. If it shows up twice I'll delete one..

I have been taking some of these fun stamps and stamping them in my Canson water color tablet. I then take my paints (in this care it's Mission Gold water colors) and take them out on the deck and paint a bunch of images. Then it takes days to cut them out. I have a nice big bowl of stamped/ painted/ die cut images ready for cards when needed. This card I used stamps from Mama Elephant, My Favorite Things, and sentiment is Tech. Tuesday.. I used Ranger oxide ink to create the background then added to a base. I used foam dots to give the images depth. some are and some aren't. I also used a little Spectrum Noir sparkle brush..

Catch the bug..

 

This image is called Heels big bow.. I found some scraps and tried to color the heels using the colors in the watercolor looking scrap..but the red just didn't want to come out right .. SO I went over it with some darker colors. I finally got what I liked. I wanted to add the Simon Says sentiment but not sure where so I added to the center and it was cut with Stampin up die. You can still see that they are heels. I used a Simon Says stamp and Ranger ink and stamped off and created the background. I used My favorite things stitch die. I then added it all to the card base. I went over the bows with Spectrum Noir sparkle pen.
