Gorgeous sunshine outside but I needed to tidy up my craft room, no idea how it gets in such a mess all the time, it's not me surely 😉✂
Anyway, you know how it is, you start to put things away and inks and stamps on the table keep catching your eye............. the next thing you know you have picked up a few tags, a kitchen roll, the water spray and a few more bits, instead of tidying you are crafting!
These two tags are the result.
I started by blending some of the Distress Oxide inks together on the tags, spritzed them with water, waited a few seconds and then rolled the kitchen towel over the top. The process was repeated until I was happy with the backgrounds.
Next I used
Dawn Bibby Creations stamps with a black archival ink pad. The first tag is using a stamp from the
Exotic Flourish Stamp Set and the second tag uses ones from the
Floral Messages set. After heat setting the ink a water brush was used along with a piece of kitchen paper to blot the colour away removing the distress oxide ink from within the flowers.
Finally, some ink was scribbled onto a craft mat, picked up with the water brush and painted back into the flowers and also for the word Love on the first tag.
Quite happy with the results, these will be used on a couple of presents I need to give over the next week or so.
Craft room still needs a tidy but making things are so much more fun!
Until next time........
Happy crafting xx
