The Crafting Niche 52 Week Mini Art Card/Tag Challenge 2024:
This is a weekly challenge. I provide you with a prompt/theme each Sunday morning through out the year. The challenge is very relaxed. You can do as much or as little as you like. You can create cards, tags, Artist Trading Cards (ATC's) or index cards, the choice is yours. You just go with what ever is in your head at the time. You can stamp, get inky, use patterned papers, texture, embellish it is all down to you.
There is a dedicated private Facebook Group, with a lovely bunch of people who are already sharing their makes from previous challenges. You can find the group by clicking this link. I'd love you to join in.
The prompt for Week 49 is "Birds"
For my Week 49 "Bird" tag I started with a cream coloured tag, laying the "Black Orchid Stencil" by Sweet Poppy Stencils over the top and applying "Leaf Green" Ranger Archival Ink with a blending brush through the stencil.
I then used a Derwent Inktense Pencil, in a shade called "Flaked Earth" to draw the lines around the edge of the tag.
Next, I used "Peat Moss" Ranger Archival Ink through the Sweet Poppy Stencil called "Duo Birds".
I returned to the "Flaked Earth" Derwent Inktense Pencil and added little dots in the empty spaces. Finally adding a Tim Holtz Ideaology word sticker to the bottom left, saying "Favourite Tales".
