Hi there! Today I’m excited to be joining the Tag You’re It challenge blog for their second challenge. I love tags, and I think this challenge is such a great idea. I hope you will join in the fun!
For my tag I started with some Tim Holtz watercolor paper and embossed the Grid Background stamp in clear. Then I did the “smoosh” technique by inking up my acrylic block with Distress inks, spritzing with water and smooshing it onto the watercolor paper. If you haven’t seen the “smooshing” action before, here’s a post where I share a video of this fun technique.
After the ink dried, I added some die cut vellum leaves, the sentiment and some glossy accent dots.
Head over to the Tag You’re It challenge blog to check out what the fabulous design team has created for this challenge! Thanks so much for stopping by!
