here is another entry for one of the Winnie & Walter 1st Birthday Bash Challenges. If you are also interested in my first entry, click here to view my tree card. I would really love to be chosen as a guest designer in April.
- cover a Manila Tag #8 with white gesso and use gel medium to add pieces of tissue wrap (Melange)
- apply a base with Distress Paint (Tumbled Glass) and Fresco Finish Paint (Concrete)
- cut a paper stencil from Winnie & Walter Scenery: Big Bang Confetti Cut Files and apply silver tinted (Distress Paint Brushed Pewter) texture paste through it
- stamp Kaisercraft Script with StazOn (Cloudy Sky) into random spots and also press the stamp into the paste to achieve even more texture
- stamp stars from Winnie & Walter Scenery: Big Bang Confetti with Delicata (Shimmery Silver)
- ink up the edges with Distress Ink (Broken China, Gathered Twigs)
- add Inka Gold (Silver) to the stars and some border areas
- cut the deer from Winnie & Walter The Daily Grind Collection Vol. 1: Holiday Mint Add-On from Grungepaper and color it with Distress Paint (Antique Linen, Gathered Twigs, Walnut Stain); cover the deer with gel medium and sprinkle it with Distress Glitter (Clear Rock Candy) for just a hint of sparkle
- rub a little Distress Paint (Tumbled Glass) and Inka Gold (Silver) over a strip ofd birch bark and use it to ground the deer
- cut the word winter from Winnie & Walter The Daily Grind Collection Vol. 1: Holiday Mint Add-On and cover the white cardstock with Distress Paint (Tumbled Glass) and Fresco Finish Paint (Concrete); ink the edges with Distress Ink (Gathered Twigs) and randomly add Martha Stewart Multi-Surface Glitter (Sugar Cube) to the sentiment
- use the Tiny Attacher to adhere a piece of burlap ribbon
- I used my brand new cordless hot glue gun to adhere the elements to the tag
Here is a close-up of the deer:
