Fairy tag by Cathy N

 Good morning, all Cathy here with a fairy tag for you today. 

                                                                            Stamps Used:

                                                                         20157 the moon

                                                                         18942 Christmas trees large

                                                                        14752 angel/fairy

                                                                         2561 grass and flowers

I started out by blending a blue and green distress ink onto a tag. I then stamped angel/fairy at the bottom and I took a water brush and took away some of the distress ink so I could color in with copic markers.

Next, I stamped the Christmas trees large on the side and the grass and flowers on the bottom. 

After that was done, I stamped the moon on a piece of white cardstock and cut out. 

I also added some sparkle sticker paper to the moon.

Merry Christmas by Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello and happy holidays to you all!

My card today is a Northern Minnesota view~ enjoy.

The following photos are what I used for the start of the card-

I used light modeling paste for the snow, then while wet added glitter flakes.

Then I had to decorate the tree. For the garland I used liquid pearls. Glitter glue for bulbs and lights confetti for the lights on tree.

I then made the background for the tree, A sheet of sparkle paper to look like wall paper.

I used two layers of foam tape behind the window so it would stand out far from the card.

Then I stamped and fussy cut the moose to go in front of window. I  used foam tape behind him and attached him. I used more modeling paste to glue his feet down so he didn't look like he was floating.

It didn't want to stick immediately so I held his feet down in the snow and dried with the heat tool. 

I used picket fence spray stain to splatter some white snow like flecks.

Last I cut red and black card stock to make the final part of the card. 

Lots of hologram and sparkle, camera just doesn't pick it up well.

Have a great what ever you celebrate and see you next year!!

Tired Santa by Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello everyone!

Todays project is a tag. Hope you enjoy the humor.

I started with a yellow and gray base, sprayed on the colors and moved them around with a brush.

Next I inked the Christmas tree and stamped it a couple times. I dried it and then sprayed distress oxide old paper over the tag

Next I stamped the" deer".( its really an antelope) I added to their horns to make them more deer like.

I also stamped, fussy cut and painted Santa. For the white I used a pigment reinker as paint would have been too thick.

I used a very fine paint brush to get the fur wisps at the edge of the hat and on the collar.

I also put a dot of red paint for Rudolph's nose.

I used foam tape behind Santa for dimension and I made the sentiments on the computer. 

Hope you enjoyed !

The Christmas Tree by Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello everyone!!

Todays project is a tag for the holidays-

First I stamped the tree with dark moss chalk ink and then I painted it with H2o's watercolors.

Next, I spritzed the background with speckled egg spray stain.

Then I used a white acrylic marker to color in the snow on the tree to make it more white.

I stamped the candle 9 times and cut them out with a sharp detail scissors. I then painted thin glue and dipped them into clear rock candy glitter. I painted the flame with the h2o paints.

Next I used a bit of foam tape to put them on the tree. Then I used Liquid pearl and white flock to enhance the snow.

I used red glitter glue for the decorations on the tree. and made a strip of icicles for the top of the tag out of hot glue and glitter. I also used a stencil and texture paste for  falling snow on the background. Its very subtle. To finish the tag, I layered it onto a green cardstock.

And that is all! I hope you enjoyed!
