Tag Playtime


Well as it was chucking it down all morning, I decided to do something I've not done for a long time, play with some tags!


The backgrounds are mainly Crayola Twist Stiks but they don't blend very well and need 'help', so gesso was applied to the tags first which helps them move across the page better.


Close up - stamping with inks and chalky paints.


And pretty much the same thing for this one, just stamped until I got the look I wanted. I added some white pen work to this one.

Oh, I do love a tag! These are terrific with a great distressed look and fab stamping. Love that neutral butterfly (perhaps predictably!).
