Welcome to another week and another Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week's theme is Fabulous Florals. I made a tag using Carabelle Studio's Colorful Life stamp set (designed by the talented Birgit Koopsen).
I started with Distress Kraft Heavystock and cut out a tag shape using a Sizzix Tag Collection die and my Sizzix Big Shot. I glued some paper to the front (Family Fun by Simple Stories) and threw in some washi tape, though the tape totally gets covered up by the end of this project.
I slathered on some white paint (you know how I do) and stenciled some blue dots onto the tag using Tim Holtz's Dotted stencil and London Blue paint.
Bring on the color! I scribbled a circle using Dina Wakley's Scribble Sticks, then colored in and around the circle with various colors of acrylic paint. I also stamped some text on a piece of scrap paper (the text is from Tim Holtz's Theories stamp set) and cut it into a circle-frame shape. I also stamped and cut out the artistic branch/foliage/flower stem shape from the Colorful Life stamp set. I added paint to the branch. I also ripped out a number and colored that as well.
That left the assembling! I got out the UHU glue stick and went to work. Once it was glued down, I added some more paint around the edges and this tag was done.
