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: http://smudgerchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/smudger-challenge-2-youre-it.html http://www.comeandgetitchallenges.blogspot.com/2012/04/anything-but-card-challenge.html http://thestampmanchallenges.blogspot.com/2012/05/your-favorite-technique.html http://cheerfulstamppad.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/challenge-42-tags.html
