Hi, Connie here with a mixed media Start Where You Are Tag featuring Adhesive Sheets 4×6 and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors. These products make a great starting place for a tag background. Let me show you.
Start Where You Are Tag Background
- 1. Distress tag using Distress Oxide ink. Designer’s Tip: Water it down and run the tag through the ink mixture.
2. Crumble up the Adhesive Sheets 4×6 into a ball and add in random spots on the tag.
3. Lay the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets over the sticky spots (color side facing UP) and pull them up.
4. Repeat the process until you achieve a distressed look. The tag is ready to be stamped and stencils added.
Build Layers
- 1. Add ephemera using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. Works so great!!
2. Add stamps and stencils using a stamping platform. Re-stamp if needed.
3. Stamp the bird and cut it out. Adhere to tag front using 3D Foam Squares White Mix.
4. Stamp the sentiment and cut it out. Add to tag front with 3D Foam Strips.
Speckle with white acrylic paint and add a material strip to complete the Start Where You Are Tag.
Thanks for stopping by!!
