Behind the mask
The new Tag challenge on Dragons Dream TIO is Elizabeths receipe:"Behind the Mask"; use Stencils, paint and script!!
Here is what I made:
I cut a tag out of chipboard and gesso-ed it, then covered the gesso with a layer of red acrylic paint and dried using heat tool (be careful not to burn the paint). Then add a layer of turquoise acrylic paint and wait a bit but, do not let completly dry, then wipe off using babywipe till you like the result and let dry completly. Now the tag is ready to be stamped.
I used stamps from the old curiosity shop set from Graphic 45 and the light bulp is a KICOSTAMPS stamp, the lady body is from Lost coast Designers Doll Set The script stamp is My Paper world Viva Decor clear stamp. I used a stencil to add the red paint dots. As the final touch I aged the tag a bit with walnut stain distress ink.
So get your paints, stamps and stencils and join us in this challenge, can't wait to see what you create
I will enter this tag in the following challenges:
