I created this week for Simon Says Stamp & Show Challenge Blog where the challenge is TAGS.
The first thing I did to this tag was to use a lace doily mask and fill it in with Golden Molding Paste. You can barely see it to the left of the flower. It was added to give the background some texture.
This beautiful Penny Black Butterly Suite stamp came into my life (!) and it was perfect on the tag. The image contains not only the flower but the music background and the butterflies. Gorgeous!
Using Copic Markers, I colored in the image and the butterflies. Coloring with Copics on tags works great - no bleeding of colors on that cardstock! I stamped the butterflies a second time, colored and cut-out then adhered them to the tops of the first butterflies so they appeared to fly.
Needing ito add embellishments to the tag, I chose Spellbinders Parisian die cut. It was inked with Tim Holtz Faded Jeans and Scattered Straw Distress Ink for that nostalgic look. I added a few things from my stash i.e., the little *beauty* tag, the embellishment in the center of the Spellbinders die, the lace and the silver embellishments in the upper right corner.
Now it's your turn. Run over to Simon Says Stamp & Show to see what my Team Mates have come up with for this challenge. They are all beautifully created.
