Foiled Hanging Tag!

Hello! Happy Monday! I'm over on the Southern Ridge Trading Company Blog today with a fun foiled hanging tag using a chipboard tag, Primitive Stars set and a 6x6" Star Stencil. I decided to play around with the DecoFoil Transfer Gel Duo and Pen to add foiling bling!! I am loving this gel and the possibilities.

Altered Mini Clipboard!

Howdy friends and happy Tuesday! I had so much fun altering this cute little Tim Holtz Ideology clipboard, and I'm sharing it over on the Southern Ridge Trading Company Blog today using their wonderful chipboard and stencils! I really do have so much fun playing around with mixed media and I love when it just all comes together to create a pretty project.

Mixed Media Wall Hanging Tutorial!

I'm back today for a post from the Scrapendipity Way Of Life Blog to bring you a tutorial for a pretty mixed media wall hanging project!

I started off by taking a 5x7" canvas board and misting it with Dylusions Inks.

I then sponged Distress Inks around the edges of my canvas matching the colours of the spray and adding some Vintage Photo.

I used Vintage Photo Distress Ink to sponge around the edges of some torn script paper and a floral paper from a Tim Holtz paper pad.

I used a Dylusions sentiment to stamp onto paper, which I then cut out, sponged with ink and glued onto a cardstock background.

I added some Distress Ink to a craft sheet and mixed in Texture Paste to create a coloured paste.

I then used a stencil to add the coloured paste to my background after adding all my elements and a bit of gelatos over top.

 I added a doily, ribbon, flowers and my floral paper to the left bottom of the canvas.

And to finish it off I layered a diecut leaf, some more paper flowers, a metal butterfly embellishment, and some ribbon!

Thanks so much for joining me today! I hope you'll give mixed media a try and just get out some paints and sprays and start layering!
