Warm Winter Woollies Tag

 Hi There! I am here with a step by step for this tag and a bit of bold colour to liven up Monday morning!

Here is how I made it. 

I took a size 10 Dina Wakely tag and painted it with Dylusions paint in patches of fresh lime, periwinkle blue and blue lagoon. I then realised it would be slightly too long to fit on the journal page in my Dylusions mini journal, so I trimmed 2 cm from the bottom edge. 

Next I used the texture border stamps to add some black ink around the edges.

I added some texture circles in unicorn white and twisted citron ink. 

I stamped the Warm winter journaling girl onto a scrap of watercolour card and onto the tag. By doing this you can cut off the fiddly bits but still have them on the background. In this case the beautiful curly locks.

I used ecoline pens to colour my girl and cut her out.

I stuck her onto the tag over the stamped image with matte medium.

Next I chose two sentiments from the winter small words set, stamped in versafine onto black card and embossed with fine detail white embossing powder.

I added these to the tag with matte medium too. 

Here is the finished tag stuck to a page in my journal....

and here is the double page spread showing the bold background from this week in contrast to the subtle one from last week. Both of these would be great entries into our facebook challenge over in the Bee Crafty Stamps Facebook group, where the theme this month is Stay Subtle or Bee bold, and you can enter up to 3 times!
