Kraft Tag

Simon Says Monday has this week challenged us to use Kraft card - I love this stuff it reacts brilliantly with different mediums

 

 

 

I used glycerine and water to soften the tag and take on the leather look - I alternated between wetting it and scrunching it until I achieved a look I liked.

 

I then inked it with Walnut Stain Distress  Ink and put it through my Vagabond in an embossing folder.

 

I then added some Peacock Feathers Distress Ink

 

I put some Rangers texture paste on to the bottom through sequin waste and set it aside to dry

 

I stamped my images from the Tim Holtz Lost and Found set on to cardstock with Archival ink and then heat set them and inked with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

 

I stamped the birds directly on to the tag with Archival and again Heat set

 

I added the stamped pieces and then some film strip which I attached with my Tiny Attacher

 

I added a strip of lace that I had coloured with Distress Stains to the side and then embellished it with buttons

 

I attached a crinkle ribbon bow and then finished off by adding gilding wax to the texture paste
