This week's theme over at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog is Tag It. We're also featuring products from Studio Light. Studio Light has a great range of supplies and has some wild and funky creations under the Art by Marlene umbrella. I used some of these Art by Marlene supplies to make my tag.
Once my tag was covered in scraps, I added some Infusions Color Stain and Lindy's Magical powder and spritzed them with water.
Once that dried, I added some paint and stamped some alphabet letters (AALL & Create's Bits of Alpha stamp set) onto the white parts of the tag. I also added a few more scraps to areas along the side.
I wanted to add a sentiment to the tag, so I wrote out the words, "We've all got stardust in our bones" which comes from a Ben Harper song. I also used an AALL & Create die to cut out some stars, which I painted and outlined with a black pen.
Last came assembly! I cut out a black and white polka dot arch from the Art by Marlene paper and glued that to my tag, then added my quote. I laid the stars on but decided I wanted the stars to be different colors, so I flipped over a few of the yellow stars and painted them light blue instead. I thought I also needed a person on my tag, so I grabbed this pensive-looking classy lady from a pile of scrap ephemera I've accumulated and glued her on, too. I gave her a crown, did some final outlining on the edges of the tag with a black pen and this project was complete.
