Happy Birthday Houses

Hi there,

it's time for another Stencil Sunday Post over at the STAMPlorations Blog and this is the tag I created:

• create a background using the new Paper Artsy Infusions (Golden Sands, Lemoncello, Orange County, The Sage) on a tag cut from watercolor paper
• apply Distress Ink (Hickory Smoke) through the ARTplorations Weathered Wood stencil
• add a border with the help of the STAMPlorations Mixed Media Elements stamp set and Memento Luxe (Tuxedo Black)
• add texture by stamping the STAMPlorations Big Numbers Background with Memento (Rich Cocoa) and by applying Distress Ink (Black Soot) through the ARTplorations Dots all over stencil
• add some splatters with the Finetec Mica Watercolor (Regal Bronze)
• stamp some houses from the STAMPlorations Houses stamp set with Memento (Tuxedo Black) using the masking technique
• color the image with Delta an Touch Twin Brush Markers
• cut out the Memory Box Paintbrush Happy twice from black cardstock and layers them on top of each other
• after gluing this first part of the sentiment down cover it with Glossy Accents for more shine and dimension
• add the second part of the sentiment using the Dymo Label Maker
• dye a piece of seam binding with the same Infusions colors used on the background and thread it through the hole of the tag
