Tinted GP Clock Works Tag


Following my PA Christmas Cracker project I'd mixed up far too much GP as you do, so added some blue paint to the greens and put them through a couple of T!m stencils onto a large black tag.


I then sanded the whole thing back.


And finally added treasure gold and metallic pan pastels. Unfortunately this isn't a true representation of the tag, it's much brighter IRL but the weather these last couple of days has been so dark, wet and gloomy that I couldn't get a good photo. I tried using the daylight lamp but it was too reflective.

  1. Wow Sam, that's a brilliant effect. Love the metallics and so hoping I can get a project done for the challenge. You have made such good use of your break!

  2. Another lovely make! This weather is such a pain for photography, isn't it? I think lots of people must be getting very frustrated with it. Julie Ann xx

  15. The addition of the Pan Pastels and Treasure gold really enhances the look. Wish I'd though of that!
