I have just done a quick tag for Hels' challenge - but if I get time (sorry) - later this week, I may have a better go! She has got some candy up for grabs this week.
Lin B showed us a cool way to get a less vibrant background using the colourwash sprays - you spray a couple of colours onto the craft mat and wet a piece of cut'n'dry foam with water and pick up the ink with that - I zigzagged it down my tag.
Stamped some fob watches on my tag (not sure who they're by) and the sentiment which is Paperartsy.
The colourwashes are lettuce and sunset orange, and then I used sunflower sparkle perfect pearl over the top.
Yesterday night I was just messing (everything seems to be orange at the moment!) with another tag and a whole jumble of things - base tag was wild honey. Used tissue tape, perfect pearl spray, stamps and stencils. Then tonight I made some sunflowers from the new TSS Kabuka mould I got at Stevenage on a couple of scraps of metal and coloured with alcohol inks. I thought it was a bit too much really, but strangely it looks better with the metal flowers on it than without.Liverpool won, so I am happy tonight!
