Beach. Sleep. Margaritas. Repeat.

Hi there,

this is just a quick reminder of this month's Stencil Challenge over on the STAMPlorations Blog:

  • cut out one of the CUTplorations Manila Tags from watercolor paper
  • apply Deco Foil Transfer Gel through the ARTplorations Bold Florals mini stencil and let this dry until it's completely clear - I left it over night
  • run the tag through the Mini Minc covered with Heidi Swapp Teal Silver Ombre Foil
  • add some color with watered-down Dina Wakley Scribble Stcks
  • grunge up the edges with Art Graf Watercolor Graphite
  • stamp the pineapple from the STAMPlorations Beach Vibes set with Versamark onto a piece of torn vellum and heat-emboss it with Ranger Sage embossing powder
  • stamp the sentiment from the same set with Archival Ink Watering Can and heat-emboss it with clear embossing powder
  • color the pineapple from the back with Delta, Touch Twin Brush and Copic Markers
  • wrap the vellum strip around the tag
  • add some brown splatters as a finishing touch
  • dye a piece of seam binding with color from the brown scribble stick and thread it through the hole of the tag


Make sure to link up your creations to the Challenge Gallery.

Hugs,

Hi there,

this is just a quick reminder of this month's Stencil Challenge over on the STAMPlorations Blog:

  • cut out one of the CUTplorations Stitched Tags from watercolor paper
  • apply Embossing Paste through the ARTplorations Christmas Trees stencil and let it dry thoroughly
  • add color to the background with Distress Ink Peacock Feathers and Distress Oxide Ink (Peacock Feathers, Evergreen Bough)
  • cover the tree with Prima Marketing Metallique Wax Sweet Rose
  • grunge up the edges with Art Graf Watercolor Graphite
  • stamp the sentiment from the STAMPlorations Joyful set with Distress Oxide Ink Hickory Smoke - use first, second and third generation stamping
  • dye a piece of seam binding with Distress Ink Picked Raspberry and thread it through the hole of the tag together with some natural twine


Have a christmasy day.

Hugs,
