Greeting Farm Tags

I received my new Greeting Farm stamps last week - the Spooky Kit and the last batch of Super Secret Stamp Club - woohoo!!  They are so super cute, we inked them up and started colouring right away.  So then what to do with those coloured images.  I haven't made tags in such a long time so I decided to pull out the manilla shipping tags and Tim Holtz Distress Ink and get dirty - hehe.

Here are my tags and Copic colours used to colour the images - to see them up close and more details please check out my youtube channel.

Altered Canvas

 I finished a canvas on the weekend of my super cute kids (not biased :-) lol.  I used a 12x12 canvas and started with a base of 12x12 paper from My Minds Eye which was card stock based.  I added some glimmer mist, distress ink and some stamping.  Then added a layer of texture past that I tinted with distress ink re-inker.  I then embelllished with various paper flowers from the Micheals $1.50 section, some resin flowers and a bird house from recollections.  the key and mini crochet flower is also from the Micheals $1.50 section.  Take a look at my you-tube channel for a close up look.

SYAO11

It's week 11 of Scrap Your Ass Off and nothing like leaving it to the last minute - and I mean last 30 minutes.  I've been working on some other stuff in the craft room and keep procrastinating.  I don't want to give up though so I stayed up to finish/start the layout for week 11.  Here is the sketch...
And again you chose from the list of eight embellishments and three techniques.  This week there was a little more variety to choose from...

2 or more tags
twine
stick pin
3+ flowers
chipboard
washi tape
3+ patterned paper
metal/foil type embellies

 I was looking for photos that were horizontal so that I could stay true to the layout so again here are more photos from our early spring (which seems to be missing) in Grand Bend at the beach.

 Here is my metal type embellie, I've been hanging onto this one for a while and decided now was a good time to use it - it's actually resin but it looks metal to me :-)

The tags were inked with Distress Inks, spraying with some water and then stamped with one of my Stampin Up stamp sets.

This one was fun and posted just in time to keep me in the competition!!

Happy Papercrafting!
