Grateful Mixed Media Tag~

Hi there!!!
I have a fun mixed media tag to share using red rubber
stamps by Paper Artsy (bought
from Topflight stamps) called ESN 67 and HP 2401.


I really love the color mix of Distress Oxide inks for
the background.  I used Prized Ribbon, Wilted Violet, and
Twisted Citron.  I also used texture paste and a stencil 
when creating the background along with the stamps by
Paper Artsy.


I also added buttons dangling from a pear pin from
the Spring Value Pack by Buttons Galore & More.  See picture below.


The sentiment is embossed using WOW! Embossing
Powder on black cardstock.  Then adhered to the tag using
3D Foam Strips by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.  The
Paper Dolls are by Tim Holtz. 



(This is my affiliate link for Buttons Galore & More.  I receive

Projects using the Spring Value Pack.

To do list Art Journal Page~

Hi there!!
I have a fun art journal page to share using
mainly Sweet 'n Sassy/Creative Worship stamps.


The background is a mixture of Distress Oxide inks.  I use
them like I would water colors. The oxide reacts with water
so that gives another distressed look to the page.  


The background stamp called Messy Marks really got my
attention.  I couldn't wait to order it.  I colored some of the boxes,
that the stamp creates, with the oxide inks.  Love the look it
gave the page.  This has some collage elements also. The focal, 
the bird in the nest, and in the right hand top corner the postage stamp.

Products used:
Sweet n' Sassy/Creative Worship: to do list, Going postal, grunge 
elements, Birthday Word Art, Messy Marks BG stamp and Mixed Up
 stencil.
Paperartsy: Mattint Squeezed (used on the postage stamp).
Posca markers, Distress Oxide inks. 
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: Crafty Foam Tape 108' white

I have a facebook page for Crafty Goodies

Small Art Journal pages~

Hi there!
I came across this small 4x6 art journal and thought It
could be treated like a tag except I could keep the pages, in the
journal, all together!    


I used Distress Oxide inks and stamps by Katzelkraft called
Spiral Borders and Ephemera.  Both of these sets work so well
used together. 


The word stickers are by Creative Expressions called Hello 
Spring.  They come on a sheet and you cut off what you need.
I bought these products at Topflight stamps.  All adhesive is by
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.


Thanks for stopping by. I will keep working in this art 
journal and share my progress!

Sarah's Tag ~ mixed media style!

Hi there!!
Today I'm sharing a mixed media style tag that I created
for a wedding shower.  This was so perfect for her!!
 She is a talented singer in our church so
the stamps by Creative Worship/Sweet 'n Sassy called 
Sing Loud worked well for this project..


I used Distress Oxide inks for the background and coloring
the singing birds.  These are the colors she is using for her 
wedding.


The colors are fossilized amber, rusty hinge, festive berries and 
rustic wilderness. 


The stamps used are called Sing Loud (retired), Geometric BG, 
Psalm 23 BG, Birthday Word Art, Faith Wordfetti, Mini Grunge
Type Alpha and Mixed Up stencil.  You can find most of these
stamps on the Creative Worship by Sweet 'n Sassy site.


Adhesive used is by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.
Thanks for stopping by.  I have more tags coming!!!
