This tag had a change of direction! I began by using theTim Holtz Holly stencil and distress inks and was planning to have a bird on the tag, but then I wasn't happy with the background so I spritzed it heavily. When it was dry I liked it! I added some depth to the holly with Pan Pastels. Then I stamped the Christmas Script in versamark and rubbed gold PanPastel over the image. Next I stamped the Poinsettia from Woodware stmps on white card with Memnto Luxe red and again with Versamark and rubbed more Pan Pastel of it. I fussy cut the Poinsettia and then used a embossing tool and foam adhesive to give it some dimension. To finish off I added the beads, the ribbon and the die cut sentiment. I also added a bit of Wink of Stella over the bloom and sentiment. ETA: I'm entering this tag in the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge - the theme is *stamps*. |

Loll's 12 Tags of Christmas
I made another mixed media tag for Loll's 12 Tags of Christmas Event. It's been so inspiring seeing all the beautiful mixed media tags from Loll and her friends and I'm sad it's the last day. Luckily we still have until the 16th to enter the challenge.
Love the hot pink in this Jenny!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tag ...... the background looks fab and I love the poinsettia. xx
ReplyDeleteThe background is beautiful Jenny. The change of direction really worked! :) Love the subtle design of watercoloured holly for the background. Along with the script and gold pastels, it makes a gorgeous background for the bright and fun poinsettia. Thanks so much for playing again with my Christmas tag event! Have had so much fun seeing your fabulous tag designs! Loll xx
