Day 13 of "24 Days of Tags 2022" with Karen Telfer

Here's my Day 13 Tag of the "24 Days of Tags 2022" with Karen Telfer.  You can see Karen's tutorial for this tag here.

I loosely did the same as Karen.  I used a cake and the sentiement stamp by Visible Image from the set called "Blow Out The Candles".  Stamping the cake on the tag, colouring it it, creating a mask of the cake. 

Then creating the bokeh look, I used a Funky Fossil stencil called "Bokeh Builder" and using various shades of Distress Oxide Inks and I used lots:  Tumbled Glass. Scattered Straw, Shaded Lilac, Twisted Citron and Kitch Flamingo.  Around the edge, I used another Distress Oxide ink:  Seedless Preserve and then used Versafine Clair "Purple Delight" ink to edge the tag.

While the mask was in place, I sprinkled water droplets over the tag which created another bokeh look.

Visible Image "Blow out the candles" gift tag

This morning I've had a play with a new to me stamp set by Visible Image, they actually have a huge Black Friday sale on at the moment, so it's a good time to stock up on stamps and stencils you've thought about purchasing in the past. 

I've used the "Blow out the candles" stamp set.  I coloured the cup cake using Derwent Inktense water colour pencils, applied with a brush.  In the background, I used the Viible Image "Fibres" stencil with three shades of Ranger Archival inks:  Pink Peony, Cornflower Blue and Tea Rose.  

The sentiment is part of the same stamp set, which I stamped in Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink.
