Thanks with Colours of Fall

Hi there!

Happy Sunday! Today, I'm sharing a card I'd made for one of the Falliday Fest challenges...foilage with text, but was unable to link up in time. Had fun playing with watercolours but had to make ample adjustments to show the shiny gold splatters. 

Supplies used:

TLC-leaf trio dies 

pan watercolours 

gold acrylic paint

gold sequins

gold  cord

    The leaves were die cut on watercolour paper. The paper was then given a yellow watercolour wash. While still damp, splatters of paint were added with a paintbrush in all fall colours. After it dried, a few colours were repeated and splatters of gold were added. The panel was adhered on a computer generated panel of thank yous. A gold cord with bow was fixed with tape then adhered to the card base and finished off with sequins. 

I'm linking up this card to challenges at...

Christmas Tag #4

Hi!
I'm back and really pleased with myself for being able to use embellishments from my collection and also for making one tag a day so far. So here's my fourth. It was pictured away from direct light so as to capture the holographic effects. 

 

Supplies used:
Papermania tag
chalk pastels (background)
fixative spray
die cut star from RAK
holographic paper
holographic star sequins
Unity Ippity-Season's of joy (sentiment)
    The inspiration for this tag was from Teresa's tag in the pic below. The background was coloured with chalk pastels then sprayed with a fixative. The star shapes of the die cut were concentric(original pictured in the background). The alternate shapes were removed, adhered on holographic paper, then adhered on the tag. Lastly, finished off with a stamped sentiment sequins and twine.

Christmas Tag #3

Hi there!
Happy Fri-Yay! I'm back with my third tag which I completed yesterday but had no time to blog. 

Supplies used:
Papermania tag
green cardstock (tree)
Hero Arts-Designer snowflakes
silver embossing powder
Recollections-Christmas borders
watercolour pencils
star shaped bling
SRM sticker sentiment
    The inspiration for this tag is from Jennifer's tag in the pic below. The tree shape was drawn using a template I made and cut. The snowflakes were stamped and heat embossed. Some trees were stamped on the tag, coloured then the tree was glued in place. Finished off with star bling, sticker sentiment and cord.

Christmas Tag #2

Hi!
    Yeah! I'm certainly enjoying myself making tags. So I'm back with my second one today. I usually shy away from big images that need to be coloured. Mainly because my colouring skills are not good enough for an adult. Kathy Rac's colouring challenge inspired me to colour and I must admit I really enjoyed colouring this with Chemeleon pens. Hope to do better next time.

Supplies used:

Image form a colouring page

Chameleon pens

gold acrylic paint
black marker

SRM sticker sentiment
ribbon, twine & a bell

    Today's tag is inspired by Sue's Day2 tag in the pic below. The image was coloured with Chameleon pens then the tag shape was cut using the Papermania tag as a template. Next, the flower centers and dots were painted, a few black dots added with a marker, mounted on black card and finished off with a sticker sentiment, a ribbon, bit of twine and a bell.

ChristmasTag #1

Hello!

    Happy Tuesday! There are a couple of Christmas Tag Challenges going on which have greatly inspired me to make tags. I thought of making as many as I can to send them as a gift to a friend. Don't know if I will be able to make one for each day but I will try. Here's my first.

Supplies used:

Hero Arts- Designer snowflakes

Gina K- Bring the bling (dots)

Sentiment (company unknown)

cloud white ink

    This tag is inspired by Tracey's Day1 tag in the pic below. The tag was cut from red card stock using a Papermania Tag as a template, then the sentiment, snowflakes and white dots were stamped and finished with a cord.
