52 Week Mini Art Card / Tag Challenge 2024 - Week 10

The challenge for 2024 is weekly.  I will 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 Crafting Niche 52 Week Mini Art Card/Tag Challenge 2024:

The prompt for Week 10 is "Clouds"

*****

This is the tag that I have made for the Week 10.

I decided to create a whimsical theme, so started with a white tag and used the Funky Fossil "In The Clouds" stencil with "Sky Blue" Archival Ink to create the sky.

I moved on to the landscape, using the Lavinia Stamps 'Hill Mask" with Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" and "Rain Forest" green inks.

I then stamped the fir trees in the distance, using Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink in first and second generation stamping using the Lavinia Stamps "Small Fir Trees" stamp set.

I then used the Lavinia stamp set called "Jas & Seb's Houses" for the toadstool, stamping in second generation stamping using Versafine Clair "Acorn" brown ink.

I used Versafine Clair "Acorn" brown ink again with the Lavinia "Small Branch" stamp to stamp the branches off the edge of the tag.

I stamped the Lavinia Stamps "Berry Leaves" in first and second generation stamping, at the base of the tag using Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink.

To colour the toadstool, I used Derwent Inktense pencils applied with a paint brush.  I then added touches of Posca Pen and black fine liner to details of the tag.

Finally, I inked the edges of the tag using Versafine Clair "Medieval Blue" and "Rain Forest", I then mounted it on to a piece of dark blue card.
