This months Challenge with Inspiration Emporium is CELEBRATE!
I decided to go for a big with a #12 Manila Tag here that could be used for Father's Day.
I started with lots of Distress Stains on the tag. While it's still wet, I spritzed it with water to let them blend and bleed.
When dry I added stamps from the new Purveyor Set with Sepia, Red Geranium, Jet Black, and Watering Can Archival Inks, Pine Needles Distress Ink, and Picket Fence Distress Paint.
Then I grabbed my "go to" set of Mixed Media stamps and added the Chicken Wire and Sequin Waste stamps.
More stamping with black archival ink for the main images.
I cut a piece of plain chipboard about 1/4 inch larger than the tag, painted the edges with Tarnished Brass Distress Paint and layered the tag onto it.
A few more images from the Purveyor set are roll stamped in the next layer. Stenciling with Chevron and Checker stencils and Metallic Gold and Black Embossing Paste are last.
Just punch a hole and tie the Linen Ribbon at the top.
