TAGplorations May "Things with Wings" Challenge

 TAGplorations "Things With Wings" May Challenge!

Here is my tag with punched butterflies out of alcohol ink on Yupo paper scrap!

Here is another sample made at our recent Retreat in BC.

Susan lead this technique.  Stamped open flower stamp from Rubbernecker: 

"Sketch Poppies 909"

onto Strathmore Bristol CS.  Used Susan's Faber-Castell Pencil Crayons with Gamsol and stumps to blend the beautiful colors.  

The size of the sketch poppies fit perfectly in my large CUTplorations Luggage Tags 

Nesting  Die.  I then found these pretty alcohol ink on Yupo paper punched butterflies

in my stash. The colors matched perfectly...love that!

Next placed tag in MISTI and stamped my PB "Happy Snippets" sentiment.

Added SU Calypso Coral Seam Binding and Twine and then Signo White Gel pen

to the center of the flowers.  Done..a pretty and easy project:-)

You will be seeing more finished projects from our fun and creative retreat

in the very near future:-)  Enjoy...

Fall Tag Challenges!

My friend Marcia's Stampin' Pad is the Featured Tag Artist for the TYIC #75 Challenge.

Here is Marcia's really cute Fall Tag!

I was inspired by Marcia's White Tag, Fall Theme and Sentiment.

Here is my Hello Fall Tag!

My tag is also for the new STAMPlorations
"TAGplorations" Challenge.  October 2017 is "All About Fall"!  I did not do the optional twist: Red, Gold and Orange.

I die cut my tag with CUTploration Luggage Tags Nesting Dies (Lg die).  I then stamped STAMPlorations Be Thankful basket of apples using Archival Jet Black onto Strathmore Mixed Media and colored with my Zigs: Beige, Dark Brown, Mid Green and Wine Red. Next die cut basket and apples with Be Thankful Bundle Die.

Placed my tag in MISTI and inked SU "For All Things" sentiment using Zig Dark Brown. Then attached basket with fun foam and added SU Soft Suede Taffeta Ribbon (ret).

Fun and easy tag with inspiration from Marcia and my STAMPloration products.

Enjoy and Happy Tag designing.  Hugs..
