Ann Chuang Crafts: Tag Friday

FIND JOY IN THE ORDINARY

Hi everyone,
It's the fifth Friday of the month, so a Tag Friday for us all over at A Vintage Journey! For May's Tag Friday I decided to make a tag with the Infusion Color Stains from PaperArtsy. I really like this set of Feathered Friends Die-Cut.

To begin I painted gesso on to my tag, sprinkled a little bit of the powder then spritz of water. I overlapped my color while everything was wet and let the colors blend. When it dry completely. Stamping some images on the tag. I die-cut the bird from watercolor paper coloured with Distress Oxide ink and Distress ink using Sizzix Feathered Friends and Wildflower Thinlits. Then, adhering those pieces and the sentiment on the tag.

So please hop over to A Vintage Journey and be inspired by all the beautiful tags the Creative Guides have created this month!
Thanks so much for stopping by & have a nice day!
Until Next Time,
Hugs & Love,

Ann

Tag Friday at A Vintage Journey

Hi everyone,
My blog has been quite neglected of late but back today with a project for our Tag Friday post at A Vintage Journey. I have been struggling with both time and motivation to create recently. Hopefully, as the spring arrives I will find more time and a little creativity.

I started with the background. Using Dina Wakley Acrylic Paints and Paper Artsy Crackle Glaze to create the crackle effect.

Next, I stamped the main image using two different ink pads of VersaFine CLAIR. I love the mixed color. I also stamped the suit and numbers on the tag using Archival black ink pad and sewing the edge.

Then, adhering those pieces to the center and the sentiment on the bottom of the tag. Adding a couple of the metal gears and stars and the tag is finished!
