Thanks tag

A mixed media tag from me for a change.... I started by smooching my card in a Distress Ink pool - Spun Sugar, Antique Linen, then using the stencil I sponged on Abandoned Coral, and Ripe Persimmon and in the center I used gold Gelato.  I die cut my panel with the stitiched tag die and sponged the edges with Brushed Corduroy and splattered on some black ink.Then I die cut my sentiment twice..one from the leftover from the tag cut and one in black.  I used Brushed Corduroy to colour the top layer and when dry glued them in place.  To finish my tag I added some threads in autumn colours and a wooden leaf embellishment.
I am playing along with three Stamploration challenges - Mixed Media - Anything Goes, TAGplorations - All About Fall and Cutplorations - Fall colours.  Also as I have used the ARTplorations stencil Peony No2, I am posting to Stamplorations Never Ending Anything Goes Challenge.  Thanks for visiting and enjoy your weekend

  

  

Best Buds tag

What a lovely sunny weekend we are enjoying over here in Queensland, Australia.... sharing my time being in my garden and at my desk.  I have a tag today for the Stamplorations TAGplorations Summer Vacation challenge... Stamped my flowers and embossed with white EP and water colored with Distress Oxides then I tried pulling and adding some of the flower colour into the background...not successful but I like how it turned out.... lightly stamped some script over the tag and a sentiment and sponged the edges.  Attached this to a stitched die cut tag and added some threads.  To finish I stamped my sentiment on die cut circle and cut one a little larger in the same colour card as the tag and attached with foam tape. I am also posting to Stamplorations Never Ending Anything Goes challenge as I used their Heleniuim stamp.  Thanks for visiting and enjoy your weekend
