Butterfly and Dragonfly Tag

Hi everyone just wanted to share with you a tag I made to enter into the Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge this week.  This weeks challenge is to create a project using mix media such a inks, spray mists, paints, modeling paste, embossing powder, pastels, chalk etc. This is defiantly a challenge for me. I tend to keep to a clean, crisp look but I did play around and this is the finished outcome.

 

 

To make this tag I used Tim Holtz stains Spiced Marmalade, Broken China and Mustard Seed. Distressed Inks used were Tea Dye and Walnut Stain. Butterfly stamp was brought second hand at a local craft store, sentiment is from Tim Holtz stamp set Flights of Fancy. Designer paper used is from We R memory keepers. Tag used is # 8 Manila tag by Ranger. Dies used are Spellbinder Lattice Rectangles, Memory Box Fabulous Phlox, Dee's Distinctively Stylized Floral, Cherry Lynn Designs dies Small Dragonfly, Build a flower Embellishment #2, and Build a Flower #2. Also used a small flower punch by Recollections. To color the butterfly I used Spectrum Noir markers BT4, BT7, CT3, GB5 and OR1.

JustRite Sunflower Card

Hi everyone I am so happy, it feels like Summer has finally arrived. I wanted to share with you today a card that I made for the JustRite Challenge this week.  This weeks challenge is a color inspiration following the pic below.
 
 

 

 

To make this card I used Spellbinders die Reflective Moments for the shape of my card. This die has been on my wish list since it was released and I finally picked it up this weekend at a local Craft store. So Happy!!! Next I added a layer of yellow card stock for my base and then layered that with Spellbinders Basic Lattice die using paper from G45 Sweet Sentiments Collection. (I felt so bad using this paper for lattice but from all the paper I have I didn't have much purple design paper). Next I layered with Spellbinders Opulent Ovals. Then I stamp two Sunflowers from JustRite Stamp Set Sunflowers Vintage Labels Five, (Soo love this set) and colored them using Spectrum Noir markers using colors CT4, GB5, and OR1 for the leaves I used Copic markers BG75 and YG63. Next I stamp out three hydrangeas from JustRite Stamp set Botanical Medallions & Banners. I colored the two lilac with Spectrum Noir markers PL2, LV2, and LV3. I colored the pink one using Copic markers RV21 and R83. I then fussy cut them and layered them. Then I used sentiments from JustRite's Botanical Medallions & Banners and stamped them onto tags made from Spellbinders Vintage Lace Motifs. Ribbon and Charm are from my stash.

 

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!
