Happy Friday ( is it Friday???) To you all
Hi everyone
Well, I have no idea what day it is so I had to look it up 😂
To be fair I think it would be a great time to celebrate Christmas..We all moan we don't have enough time off at Christmas or we have to travel around family..so why not have a 3 week long Christmas? 😂 🌲🌲🌲
Anyway the sun is shining and long may it continue as it's definitely helping keep spirits up, people can exercise and life seems bearable.
I haven't even started on box sets yet, too busy crafting , blogging and trying to keep my nhs and keyworker friends peckers up, I feel shit not being able to be there on the front line helping but I guess I can now help in other ways 😊
Ok so today I wanted to share with you the tags I've made using the 6 inch grey board tags from Tando Creative, distress oxide inks, carabelle design stamps and a dylusions large stencil.
I started by stamping the images onto 220gm white card using my stamping platform and versafine Clair in black.
I coloured the images in bright colours using basic felt pens.Once dry i covered elements in glossy accents and allowed to dry overnight before cutting out.
I used distress oxide ink pads in fossilised Amber, seedless preserves and lagoon , I added a coat of decomache Matt glue to seal. I then stencilled using paint over pens .
Once the elements were all ready I added to the tags, adding a little doodling as I went.
I felt the brown cat was calling out for attention so I framed him 😊
I finally added words from the small talk Tim Holtz collection and ribbon to finish.
I hope these will inspire you to make some tags, they are perfect to pop a message on the reverse, pop in an envelope and make someone smile through these difficult days.
Lots of love and please keep safe
