Rolling Recipe Tag Challenge - week 24

Here is my tag. I started with a 'Paris Trunk' sepia coloured ink base coat . I then stamped the eiffel tower on some silver foil with brown stazon. stuck that on as it was sticky backed, then pasted some paper torn numbers along one side... slapped on a bit more ink, this time walnut stain DI.. I then embossed the carte postal image using light gold jewel enamel..

I finished with a utee key and patriotic gems

This is a close up so you can sort of see the silver 'shiney' foil and embossing.

Oh and by the way Alison I WIN lol

Recipe tag week 20

My first evening's play in ages!

Tag painted with acrylic paints. Clarity tree and camels (unknown source) stamped in black Versacolour and embossed with black detail powder.

I would change the composition if I had to do it again, starting with stamping the camels straight - mind you, I did take a scan of the BG vefore I stamped it so I might well do it again!

Rolling Recipe Tag Challenge - week 21

For this tag, I stamped & clear embossed the main image by Stampers Anonymous, then inked around it with distress inks in tumbled glass, stormy sky & chipped sapphire. I stamped a few Tim Holtz images for the background, then added a silver grommet, bashed it a bit with a texture hammer, & tied on a bit of string in a bow.

Recipe Tag Challenge

Catching up on last week's tag - the text by Simple Expressions is embossed with pearlescent gold.

This week's tag is a stamp that arrived last week in a grab bag. The trees were coloured with markers, spritzed & stamped. The giraffe is embossed & coloured with Coloursoft pencils.

Rolling Recipe Tag Challenge - week 20

The background is either Nick Bantock or the new DIs, can't remember as I made it a while ago! I stamped the two big PaperArtsy trees last week, when I was making week 18's tag, then gave up! So, today, I added the little Crafty Individuals trees, the Craft Stamper cat, which I triple embossed, plus the phrase across the top. Then I took the little tag, which came with the keys to our new car, and the reg no. on the back! I coloured it direct with barn door DI, stamped the words, and triple embossed it, then attached it with some black ribbon.

Recipe tag challenge - week 19

I was looking for a way to add texture and embossing and remembered my Antiquities inkpads and powders, which give a lovely texture effect with no shine whatsoever. unfortunately the texture does not really come out in the photo so you'll have to take my word for it!

House and background by Paper Artsy, trees by Elusive Images (I think) and sun from a silicone mould taken from an old button.

'A Charming Exchange' revisited

Totally inspired by the book 'A Charming Exchange' by Snelling and Rae, I decided to host my own swap and i can now reveal the fruits of everyones labour.

I had 14 charming swappees including myself making a fantastic array of charms in all shapes and sizes.I then created a bracelet {or in some cases a keyring} for them all to go on and hand made boxes to present them in

I would just like to say a very big thanks to each and every one of you for making this a most enjoyable swap.. and i hope you all decide to partake in simular ones i have planned in the near future.. watch the forum for details...

Text by Paper Artsy.

Rolling Recipe Tag 18

This is my entry for this weeks challenge, instructions on my blog as usual !

Recipe tag week 18

I can't believe I'm first this week!

The tree is by Elusive images, and in the background of the Paper Artsy stamp you can see a pagoda which is a kind of house-ish... The stamped text (Paper Artsy) is sort of stripy.

The background is a mixture of Japanese origami paper and joss paper, and the whole merrily mixes Chinese and Japanese influence.
