Hello everyone,
Today at Fashionable Stamping Challenges the subject is -
Masks and Stencils
I did this tag just after I got my Tim Holtz stencils and I decided to use the Dot Fade one.
This tag is quite a simple one compared to what I normally do and I really liked doing it...sometimes it is great to add layer after layer and tons of frills and embellishments...but for this one I wanted a more simpler style.
I had a Kraft tag and stamped some Tim Holtz Stamps in with Potting Soil Archival ink in opposite corners.
I then dabbed some Walnut Stain DI over the Dot Fade stencil in the other corners
I stamped the quote on some Kraft card that I had used to mop up the excess Dylusions white ink from a previous time using the Stencil - It is very subtle and not very noticeable here but I like the added texture it gives to the quote background.
I used some kraft die cut flowers and inked around the edges with Walnut Stain DI and gave a very heavy coating of Rock Candy Distress stickles glue.
The fern style leaves were inked with Walnut Stain DI and I added some curly rusty wire.
The tag is finished off with some thick twine tied in a bow
Hope you like my stencil tag! Why not hop over to Fashionable Stamping Challenges and join in the challenge! You could win $20 to spend at Flonzcraft! - Happy Stamping!
This is dare I say such a pretty tag Laura. I love the soft but also dark subtle colour tones you have used and they are some of my fave stamps.

I really love this, Laura. It's simple, but the colours are so interesting and the use of stamp is so dramatic. I also adore the way you used the Rock Candy Stickles on the flowers - they look gorgeous. I want to reach out and touch this tactile tag! Julie Ann xxx
