Week 2 - 52 Week Mini Art Card / Tag Challenge 2019
The prompt for Week 2 of the challenge is "New".
This could be new stash, baby, home, year, shoes, phone, diary the choice is endless. I opted for "New Year, New Diet" for my Week 2 tag.
I used one of the free stamps in issue 66 of Creative Stamping magazine for the main image, stamped in Versafine "Black Onyx" ink and coloured with Promarkers.
I gave the background a wash using a paintbrush and colour from a water colour pencil. Once dry, I randomly stamped the tape measure (which came in the same set as the main image), in Versafine "Stormy Grey" ink. I filled in the area with silver dots using a Signo pen. I then inked the edges and surface of the tag using two shades of Colorbox ink.
Finally, using a ProvoCraft rolling alphabet stamp I stamped the words "New Year and New Diet" . I cut the words down and gave the surface a rub with ink, then drew a box around each word before positioning them raised on the tag using foam pads.
