I hope you are well. Sheena has brought us some lovely new crafty things! Her new launch is mixed media tags, accompanied by floral dies and stamps as well as butterflies and more! As these dies are mixed media they allow you to cut out mount board and lots of other materials.
With this one, I had the idea of a rainbow of butterflies moving across the tags. The butterfly kaleidoscope is a such a fabulous, intricate die and has a matching stamp. There are also pattern stamps to add extra texture to your projects. I connected these mount board tags with black card joints and then covered the back with black card tags for a clean finish. The front tags were cut with Sheena card. We were also lucky enough to get to play with the gorgeous new harmony ink pads from Crafter's Companion! 😊 These are wonderful, blend beautifully, and can also be used as watercolours, they were combined with Sheena's sparkle pens for the butterflies.
I also created a card to show the different sizes, there are actually five to play with in the contemporary tag set, and as always, Sheena has brought us some uplifting sentiments. The background behind the die cut butterflies, was made by randomly painting drawing gum across the card, to give the feel of marble. I wanted the butterflies to really stand out, and it would also be in contrast to the gold embossed patterns on the card base.
And now on to lillies! I thought they would make a nice contrast against the black for this wall hanging.
A second card with the Lily and the tag, as you can see these are great for cards or as a stand alone tag. The Lily die is really easy to decoupage too as it has guidelines of where to cut, and you know me, I do love a bit of decoupage! 😊
I hope you have enjoyed seeing these projects. Can't wait to see what you make!
