Advent in November: Day 5

Welcome to Advent in November.  The inspiration for this blog post can be found here.   Information about how I started my tags can be found here and here and my Advent Journal here.

I put some blue acrylic paint on my craft mat and sprayed some water. I swiped the tag through the paint and put it down on the paint and twisted it until the tag was covered in paint.  I added a small doily using matte medium and then added the number.

I used gold paint through a stencil.  I cheked to see how the cut up verse would fit.

I inked the edges of the verse.

I assembled the tag adding some washi tape and inking the edges.

Both sides together.

I wrote my journaling on white card inside the little book.

I added a wreath embellishment which helps keep the booklet closed.

Thanks for stopping by.

Advent in November: Day 4

Welcome to Advent in November.  The inspiration for this blog post can be found here.   Information about how I started my tags can be found here and here and my Advent Journal here.

This is another tag where I had put modelling paste through a stencil.  I brushed lime green Pan Pastel over this.   I added some ribbon and the number and inked the edges of the tag.

I painted acrylic paint through half of the stencil.  I cut up the verse and inked the edges.

I assembled the tag and inked the edges.

Here are the two sides of the tag.

Day 4 page ready

I added some ribbon and 3 wooden embellishments to the page.

I wrote my journaling on the card.

And popped it back inside the music pocket/

Advent in November: Day 3

Welcome to Advent in November.  The inspiration for this blog post can be found here.   Information about how I started my tags can be found here and here and my Advent Journal here.

This is one of the tags where I had put modelling paste through a stencil.  I brushed a yellow and a turquoise Pan Pastel across the raised surfaces.  I put the yarn across the tag and glued down the number.  I inked the edge of the tag.

I put a stencil at the edge of the tag so only half the image shows on the tag and stencilled gold paint through it.   I cut up the verse and inked the edges.

I assembled the tag adding some washi tape and inking the edge of the tag.

Here are each the two tags before being stuck together.
