Yesterday evening I made a second tag with the remains of the coffee filter flowers I had die cut the day before. Used all my *Glimmer Mist' remains to do this one, as the bottles were nearly all empty, and the result was this lovely grungy purple-blue colour. Sprinkled it all with gold embossing powder before heat drying and *crisping* the flowers up. The edges have been inked and curled a bit, too. The cardboard box tag has also been sprayed, embossed and then re-embossed with perfect pearly to give it some shine. I used some rub ons to put the roses and tiger onto the background, added a vintage child with wings picture, and the tattered flower and wings, with a metallic doiley as background. Used a gem stone, some pearls and a bit of stickles for the finishing touches, and that was it. It was, as always, great fun to make! And I did some clearing up yesterday!
Thanks for looking and have a good day!
Love this tag again, well done! Sarah & Kids
ReplyDeleteVal - this is absolutely gorgeous (I always seem to leave the same comment - but sooo true!). Wish I had a fraction of your creative imagination.

Gorgeous, Valerie -it never ceases to amaze me the wide range of images you can put into one project yet nothing looks random or out of place, everything works together very happily. Lovely coffee filter flower, such a deep beautiful shade. CoB

Hi there Val, this is lovely. Whoda thunk to use coffee filters in art.....Gingersnappers of course. LOL
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done.
What fabulous layers ... I love the "leftover" color combination of your glimmer mists ... and adding embossing powder before trying produced such a great effect ... thanks for joining our Spicy Supply Challenge at Gingersnap Creations.
