I'm really enjoying decorating these huge tags at the moment and decided to decorate one using the fabulous Art Sayings and Birds A5 stamp sets by Sam Poole from Creative Expressions.
I stamped my background with text using black Archival Ink, dried with a heat gun and then stamped the bird images with a VersaMark stamp pad and embossed with clear embossing powder, then adding broken china Distress Ink, with a little faded jeans to the edges.
I cut two hearts from white card, stamped my images with black archival and coloured with broken china ink, matt and layering each heart onto a second heart coloured with vintage photo Distress Ink and distressed along the edges.
"If I had wings" is from Sam Poole's Art Sayings set again stamped onto white card and coloured with a little broken china ink. I also added a coordinated ribbon to the top of my tag along with the bird postage stamp from the Birds plate.
I repeated the sentiment and added to the bottom of my card. You can also see the resist technique much better in this picture.
For added dimension I also added one of the fabulous Wendy Vecchi Embellish Your Art embellishments.
Thanks so much for stopping by, Tracy x x
