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 50 is "Use packaging"
For my Week 50 "Packaging" tag. I glued a piece of cardboard on to a tag. I then peeled off some of the paper covering to reveal some of the corrugated core of the cardboard. I then mounted the tag on to a piece of black card.
In my bits and bobs box of goodies that I have saved over years, I pulled out a netting from onions, garlic and lemons. I attached the netting to the tag using staples.
I used That's Crafty "Black Texture Paste" through the Tim Holtz THMM104 stencil for the harlequin design on the top left hand corner. I then used white and pink Posca Pens to splatter paint over the surface.
Using foam pads, I stuck on a Tim Holtz "Paper Doll" and then added a Tim Holtz Ideaology word sticker, saying "Creativity takes courage".
This tag has got lots of interest Sam, and I love the very vintage style of the gentleman, and the combination of the different pieces of netting and the black texture paste stencilled harlequin pattern have given him a splendid background. Hope all is proceeding well with the move. x
