Spellbinders Floral Tag

Yesterday afternoon, I watched a Facebook Live session by Christine Emberson Spellbinders Ambassador.  Where she demonstrated the use of two sets of dies.  I don't have those dies, but today I decided to use a similar layout and dust of some Spellbinders dies which I have not used for some time to make a tag.



















I have used an assortment of Spellbinder dies for my tag.  I used an off-cut of green distressed looking paper and stuck it to a tag to create the base.  I then used a lattice die to create the cream trellis work (I seem to have mis-laid the packet) and lightly inked the edges in an olive green ink.

I then die cut a circle in cream card and stamped the sentiment using a Stampin' Up set called "Hello Friend" in a sepia Versafine ink.  Using the Spellbinders Shapeabilities wreath die I cut the wreath in brown card and stuck it around the circle.

Using water colour paper, I die cut the leaves and layers of petals, using Spellbinders "Timeless Heart - Textured Flowers".  I then coloured them using Tim Holtz Distress Inks, building up the colours as I went.  I spritzed the pieces which then allowed me to manipulate the shapes to have curves.  I then secured the layers together with a small brad.
