Week 20 - 52 Week Mini Art Card / Tag Challenge 2018

I feel a bit at sea this week as my laptop is in for repair and I’m posting this on my phone. It feels very strange.

The prompt for Week 20 is “Butterflies”

I started my tag with a piece of pale pink card. I used Distress Inks through a hydrangea stencil I had from a magazine a while back.

I then added more detail to the flowers by using Promarkers and a Signo pen to fill in the area of the flower head. I also inked the background in green Distress Inks.

I used an Oak House Studio text stamp and a Crafters Companion stamp from their “Flutterby” collection for the sentiment.

I found an off cut of paper coloured with alcohol Inks, so I used two dues to cut the butterfly shapes. A Papertrey Ink die from their “Love Lives Here” set and a Stampin’ Up due from their “Butterflies Thinlits” set.  I backed the large butterfly die cut with velum.

Week 14 - 52 Week Mini Art Card / Tag Challenge 2018

It's April already, time really has flown this year.  Thank you to all those following this challenge.  I am loving seeing your creations.

The prompt for Week 14 is "Fly".  I thought this one could be interpreted in several different ways.

The background of this tag was made using a brayer and several shades of Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks.

The sentiment is from a stamp called "Fly Away / Flutterby Collection" by Crafters Companion stamped in Versafine ink.

The wings were created by using Distress Inks on Yupo paper.  I then die cut the paper using Stampin' up "Butterflies Thinlits".  The girl is from a Tim Holtz "Paper Dolls" pack coloured  using Promarkers.  Finally I added white and black dots to the background and then inked the edges.
