Judgement .....

 

Made a vintage Tag for a monthly swap on UK Stampers Forum .....

The base was cut from re-cycled card and another was cut from white cardstock. I then stamped a series of triangles in Distress Ink ( Bundled Sage, Shabby Shutters, Dusty Concord, Milled Lavender) and dried with a heat gun to set. I then overstamped with a numbers stamp in Versafine black ink and also stamped a baseline for the boy to stand on in Sepia Archival Ink.

The tag was then edged with Antique Linen Distress IN applied with a make-up sponge.

The boy ( TH paper Dolls) was then edged in black ink and applied as shown on foam pads. The self adhesive words are also by Tim Holtz and were edged with black Micron pen.

The front was attached to the base and I added a gold eyelet with the Crop-a-dile and tied through with some mauve ribbon to finish the tag.

I would like to enter this into the Daring Cardmakers Challenge whose subject is Picture Perfect

Circles .....

I made a set of Artist Trading Coins for a swap over on UK Stampers Forum .....

I die-cut 3 x 2.5 inch circles from white card and 3 from re-cycled packaging. I then coloured the three white card circles with Distress Oxide inks in Seedless Preserve, Antique Linen & Cracked Pistachio. Onto this I stamped some circle stamps (Uniko) in Archival coloured inks in violet and green colours.

I then stamped some small circles in Versamark ink and heat embossed these in white and black embossing powder.

Then I stamped the 'Live, Laugh, Love' (Kaisercraf) circle in black Versafine ink and die-cut these after edging in violet Versamagic chalk ink. These were applied as shown on foam pads and the finished backgrounds glued to the re-cycled card bases before edging in more violet Versamagic chalk ink to finish.

Perfect ....

New month .... new Coins .... made these for a virtual swap over on UK Stampers Forum ...

I used a base of re-cycled packaging die-cut to 2.5 iinches diameter. I then die-cut some coloured card  as the base and stamped this with a flower stamp and yellow chalk ink and used a black Posca pen to dot the centres of the flowers.

The leaves were die-cut from a piece of glossy card coloured with Alcohol Ink. The green circle was applied to cardbase and the leaves were applied onto this. I stamped the word 'Perfect' in Versafine black ink on white card, trimmed this out and attached on foam pads.

The Coins were then edged with Krylon gold pen to finish.....
