52 Week Mini Art Card / Tag Challenge 2025 - Week 23



The Crafting Niche 52 Week Mini Art Card/Tag Challenge 2025:

This is a weekly challenge. I provide you with a prompt/theme each Sunday morning through out the year.  The challenge is very relaxed.  You can do as much or as little as you like.  You can create cards, tags, Artist Trading Cards (ATC's) or index cards, the choice is yours. You just go with what ever is in your head at the time.  You can stamp, get inky, use patterned papers, texture, embellish it is all down to you.

There is a dedicated private Facebook Group, with a lovely bunch of people who are already sharing their makes from previous challenges.  You can find the group by clicking this link.  I'd love you to join in.

The prompt for Week 23 is "Earth Tones"

For the base of this tag, I used a piece of patterned paper in a fawn colour with print on it.

Using Versafine Clair Ink "Nocturne" black ink, I stamped the Sweet Poppy Stencil "Toadstool Large" stamp.  Next I used the Sweet Poppy "Dots Backplate Stencil" with "Watering Can" Ranger Archival Ink.

Next I used "Thistle" Ranger Archival Ink trhough the Cretive Expressions "Calm Mini Stencil".  I also inked the edges of the tag using the same ink. I added some green to the background to grunge it up a little, using "Pixie Green" Elements Ink with a blending brush.

I then moved on to colouring the stamped image, using some kids paints, colouring pencils and  Posca and gel pens

  1. Such pretty earth tones and some great stencilling you have added to the background, and the pop of red from the toadstools is the perfect addition...a beautiful tag! I hope all is going well with your move Sam. x
