Always in Style

I made  this tag for an upcoming tag swap at the Inky Fun Stampers.  I was making a page for my Life Book journal and thought I would make the background of this tag with the made colours. I used my Gelli plate to create the background and added a couple of rubber stamps and some Washi tape for interest. The top is a pre-cut label from a package of scrapbook labels that happened to be the same colour as my project. I thought it made an interesting top to the tag. 

I used one of my mix media Prima doll for the tag and punched my flowers out left over paper from my gelli late prints.  I paper pieced the dress, added a Stampin Up sentiment, ribbon and a couple of buttons.  

Thanks for stopping by and have a creative days.

Every Rose has its Thorn (Poison)

Inky Fun §tampers has a great swap this month called Every Rose has its Thorn (Poison).  I love topics that you have to really think about what you are going to make for the card.  When I think of a poison rose I think a black rose but I thought that a black rose would be hard to do on a card so I decided to use the black in my background for the card.

My background was made with my Gelli plate.  I used a black and purple acrylic paint on my Gelli plate and pressed my textured plate background pattern.

Next I coloured my rose stamped image with a red and purple Copic Marker, cut out the image and  added to my paper.  I then added a black ribon and a row of black bling down the side of the card.  I think this was an interesting combination of textures, colours and embellishments.  

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day.
