Life is a Carnival

 As Summer slowly fades into Fall, county fairs start up. Using the Spinning Swing Ride stamp and some Distress Oxides on a tag, reminds me of simpler times.

Supplies:

Spinning Swing Ride

Distress Oxides: Wilted Violet, Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade and Squeezed Lemonade

Blending Brushes (or any blending type tool)

Chipboard Tag

White Gesso

Black Pigment Ink

Black Embossing Powder 

Stencil Flower Dot (use any stencil you have on hand)

Texture Paste Copper Crackle

 

Directions:

1) Cover chipboard tag evenly with white gesso (if you have a tag that is on white chipboard, skipp this step).

 2) Stamp and emboss the stamp, positioning it to the left of the tag.

3) Apply in strips horizontally each color, purple, pink, orange and yello.

4) Blend colors with blending tool, color to color, edge to edge of pigment.

5) Find stencil and add texture metallic pastes.

This tag can have a tassel added and the sides inked with black as well, but I ended up leaving this as is.

Hope you enjoyed this quick project! See you on the flip side!
