Go ahead dear, try me.... by Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello everyone! 

Hope all is well- please enjoy the art tag for my project today-

To start this tag, I used a large make up brush to apply several colors of pan pastels for the whole background.

I then stamped the beautiful witch/ fairy once on the tag and again on cardstock. I didn't  want to have to cut out around the tiny stars on the crown... 

I stamped the Christmas ball on a bit of mylar plastic wrap for the iridescence to look like a bubble.

 Then I used a stencil to make more bubbles on the tag using a white gel pen and then colored them on edges with colored pencils. also, you can see how much of her crown I left on the layer girl.

I painted the layer girl with distress spray stains and then got to work gluing on all the holographic stars.

Once that was done, I glued her onto the tag. Before gluing her down, I glued the mylar bubble on the tag.

I used a sparkle gel pen to color her crown, staff and necklace. Then I just needed to make the phrase on transparency on the computer. I used clear tape to stick those pieces down.

And that is it! Was A fun tag to make.

Fairy Bubble by Tracy Blackwolf

 Hello everyone ! 

Today I Am thinking spring thoughts- Here is A fun card-

For this card I Started by spritzing the rubberstamp with spray inks, three colors. I blended them with my finger and then layed the card on top of  the stamp. I used my brayer to roll over the whole thing to make sure it was covered evenly.

It was brighter than I wanted so I spritzed water over the stamp again with out reapplying ink and layed a new card on top. It came out very pale which I was happy with. It gave a barely there print. 

Then I stamped the Christmas ball stamp on the sparkle laminate with staz on ink. Inking just around the edges and a little more. I practiced on scrap paper first to make sure of the inking. I did this twice.

I used a sharpie to fill the line across the top where the neck of the ornament would be. I needed a bubble after all. I stamped the fairy and fussy cut her out. then cut out the bubbles. I made a "mask" to cover the body of the girl and used spray inks to color her wings.

Then I colored her body with alcohol markers.

I stamped the background with more  "bubbles", Spritzed some yellow and speckled egg color on the background, dried it then stuck the first bubble onto the card. for the bubble on top I left the backing on so the the foam tape didn't show and then did the same with the fairy.  Found some fitting words and that was it!

I hope you enjoy!
