Oh Happy Day – Mixed Media Tag

Happy Saturday everyone! It’s Lisa here with you and I’m thrilled to be sharing a little mixed media tag I worked on this week using some of my very favorite Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products.

I created the background first using a variety of mediums.  Once I had that the way I liked it, then I adhered the patterned paper to the side using the MyStik® Permanent Strips. After that I watercolored some paper, stamped the floral images, and die-cut them. I also die-cut a single leaf, as well.  I placed 3D Foam Squares – White, Regular under one flower and Thin 3D Foam Squares – Mix White under the other.  I stamped the stems where I wanted them, removed the backing paper from the foam squares and put the flowers in place. I then adhered the leaf with the MyStik® Permanent Strips.

Placing the flowers like this gives it additional dimension since the flowers are now mounted at two different heights or thicknesses.

Here’s a close-up:

I always love rolling up Dodz™ Small to ensure that my bows don’t shift, so I did that with my twine bow. The Dodz™ really keep things nice and secure.

I hope that you enjoyed my tag today and enjoy your weekend!
