Mixed Media Tag Best Day Feat. Tracy Evans

Hello, my dear blog friends, welcome back to the new challenge. This week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge our theme is "MAKE YOUR OWN BACKGROUND". It’s the first Monday of the month we are showcasing some fabulous products from Tracy Evans. You don’t have to use them to join in with the challenge but if you have them we would love to see them used. Our guest designer of the month is the lovely Simona Rebecchi. Please visit her blog for all the great inspiration and her awesome creations.


I was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Tracy Evans Boutique Designs Background Elements A7 Clear Stamps te11 and Tracy Evans Boutique Designs Create Your Own Story A5 Clear Stamps on the background. I watercolored the stamped background with watercolors. On a piece of watercolor paper, I stamped the flower image, colored the image with Copic markers, and tore the flower, then pasted it on the tag using Tombow Glue. 


  I attached two hearts from Tim Holtz idea-ology Salvaged Hearts that were colored using Distress Paints. 
The sentiment sticker and Tim Holtz metal embellishment were added to finish off this Best Day Ever mixed media tag.

Whatever the Weather Rain or Shine Card


Hello, my dear blog friends, welcome back to the new challenge. This week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge our theme is "WHATEVER THE WEATHER". I was inspired to create a card using Simon Says Clear Stamps Rain or Shine on the background, and colored it with Copic SKETCH 72 PC SET B Markers and Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi 24 COLOR Set.


I started my project with trimming the card stock into a 5.5"x4.25" card base and layered a slightly smaller trimmed dark green card stock on it. 

I trimmed the background of the card with a watercolor paper and stamped the image and the sentiment on it. The background was colored with Zig watercolors and the image was colored with Copic Markers.
