Hello Bloggers! So I think this is the last of the forgotten art tags of 2013! It was a very busy year for me and sadly I just didn't have the time or energy to get "bloggy with it"! BUT 2014 is a different story and I'll be back in action soon, YAY!
This first tag is one of my favourites. I used a bunch of acrylic paints, stencils, india ink, and a cool metal frame from Stampin UP painted with some white Tim Holtz distress paint.
I love this sentiment!
I ran this tag through my Cuttle Bug maching to emboss the surface. Before I laid the tag inside the folder I added some distress paint so it would create a cool coloured background. I then added more paint and went over the whole raised surface with some white distress paints. I love this dry embossing effect!
I did the same thing with this next tag and dry embossed it with a number embossing folder. I added lots of paints and sprays, and a sentiment stamp to finish it off.
This tag was made using some back ground stamps from Unity, different colours of sprays and inks, a cute fairy stamp from Unity, Faber-Castell Gelatos, and a sakura giltter pen to add some shimmer!
I thought I would try to cover an entire tag with some Giltter Ritz that I have in my stash (that never gets used). I forgot how awesome this stuff is! Once you apply the glitter, simply burnish with your finger and the result is a glorious shimmery glittery finish you won't want to stop looking at. The coolest part is that it feels like brushed suede and the sparkles will not rub off! Added some glitter Thickers to finish!
This was a fun tag to do, lots of sprays, some fun Claudine Helmuth foam and clear stamps, washi tape and glimmer mist!
Not sure if you can see the sparkly goodness but its so pretty to look at in person. You can never have enough sparkle!
Well there ya go! There will be many more to come in 2014 along with some journal pages, canvases, cards etc...I hope you enjoyed and found even a bit of inspiration! Now go make something ;)
Thanks for stopping by!
