I am putting the tag forward for 2 challenges Sunday Stamper  the theme being Birds and Tag Along the theme being Lots Of Layers.

Distress

A card I have done for a challenge over at Artistic Stamper the theme being distress I started with a tag size 12 which I folded in half to make a card I then  used DI inks picked raspberry,spiced marmalade and gathered twigs to colour the card Then stamped main image also make a mask of it using the mask in place stamp words so they look as though they are behind the flower stamps used are Artistic Stamper and  a Tim Holtz stencil to give a bit of depth.

This is the inside of the small card the sentiment stamp is by kaisercraft. Add
Then mount the small card onto some black card and then on to a 6x6 card blank.Ribbon and gems I had in my stash.

Journal page

At Art Journal Journey this month the theme is Zodiac signs well I am Gemini so here is my page.I stamp the girl on both side of the pages then a couple of scrap paper which I then cut out and used as masks.I coloured them with pencils.With the masks in place I used Di for background and various stamps were used as well to make background.

Tag Card

I have done a tag card  using Graphic 45  Typography paper.

I chose the paper I wanted to use and cut a tag shape from it.

I then using stencils and stamps did a background over tag.

Cut out one of the toppers from pack tripled embossed it and mounted it on blk card I also cut a stripe of constrasting   paper in fact the paper I used was from the same sheet I used for my tag but the other side tripled embossed that then mount on blk card and put some lace along bottom edge.

Add the topper and strip to tag. Made a faux porcelain flower for the flower I used the left over card to die cuts the flowers put them together and dip in melting pot.then attach to tag and add a hat pin.Then mount tag on a kraft DL card which I had stamped a text stamp down one side add the words laughter and fun to top of tag and then you have the finished card.

Valentines Card

My Valentines card for Keith started with a white blank card cut a piece of black and then red slightly smaller than black added some lines using acrylic paint and stamp some flourishes.Heart made using the meltpot and textured tread. word are Tim Holtz and Creative Expression stamps.some bakers twine wrapped round and key and gems attached.I am pleased to say he love it.

A tag for the challenge at Sunday Stamper the theme being  diamonds I started with a size 8 tag which I coloured using Adirondack sunset orange and sunshine yellow. The flourishes are IndigoBlu and stamped using red pepper.flowers are Tim Holtz dies butterfly is IndigoBlu. Gems were added and then leaves and key.

Valentine

The challenge this time at Ali-Craft is Valentines. I was given this heart shape by Tando at Christmas so thought I would use it  I started by painting it all red then I stamped over it with Tim Holtz stamps allow to dry.Randomly I put frantage embossing enamel over and heated you have to do it slowly I always start with the heat gun quite away from the powder and  as it starts to melt move in  in slowly as the powder does tend to blow around.I then found some of Tim's paper and some acetate  traced round the hearts and cut out stamps words and swirls on paper then attach to the base and put acetate over then place the front of the hearts on.Flowers are from Craft Shop which I put in the melting pot.I then attached flowers using a glue gun adding some metal leaves under them then a key across the top right hand corner and a black bow in left hand one.Sorry there are no step by step but it actually started off in a different way to how it as ended.
