52 Week Mini Art Card/Tag Challenge

Day 8 of "24 Days of Tags 2022" with Karen Telfer.



This is my Day 8 tag, part of the "24 Days of Tags 2022" challenge with Karen Telfer. Today was all about smoothing and splattering.  Here is her video tutorial if you want to have a go yourself.

I followed Karen's instructions for the base colours, but didn't have the same flowers and leaves that she used, so rummaged around and came across three Woodware sets of stamps that would work well.  They were "Leaf Quartet", "Poinsettia" and "Seasons Greetings".

I used Wow! Rich Gold Embossing powder on the vellum and heat set it on a low setting.  It took a while but I got there in the end.  I added touches of metallic gold pen to the poinsettia leaves and also edged the tag in gold too.

  2. The deep red poinsettia is a great contrast to the gold embossed vellum poinsettia and leaves Sam, and the greens, a great Christmas colour for the pretty background. x
