Simply Paper Crafts

Hello, my lovely blog friends, welcome back for the new challenge. This week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge our theme is "GIRLY/ FEMININE". I was inspired to create a mixed media feminine tag using Simon Says Stamp Spring Blessings Wafer Die and decorated it with Prima Marketing Fairytales Poetic Rose Flowers.

To start this project, I applied Modeling Paste on the background of the tag using a palette to create the texture. I then applied different colors of Distress Paints on the background, and distressed the edges using the Distress Ink Pad.

I layered the cheese cloth and the vintage photos with some Prima Flowers. On a piece of card stock, I die cut the sentiment and colored it with Distress Paint. These embellishments were layered and pasted on the tag using foam tabs and Tombo Mono Glue.

I added a metal word band that was colored with Distress Paints using fasteners. Some randomly text and images were added on the tag. As the final touch, I splattered some Gesso using a brush on the tag randomly.

It's so much fun to create a girly and feminine project since I really adore this style. I hope this tag inspired you to create something and join us at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge this week. Happy crafting!

Hello, my lovely friends, I hope you all had a great weekend. Let's have fun with the new challenge! This week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge, our theme is "WHATEVER the WEATHER". As it is the first Monday of the month we are showcasing a particular company or designer. This week we are all using products designed by the fabulous Tim Holtz.

This week we are welcoming the lovely and super talented Lisa Rabellino into the Designer Spotlight. Be sure to check her blog for all the awesome inspiration there.

I was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Sizzix Lumber 3D Texture Fades Embossing Folder for the texture on the background and Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamp Pondering for the sentiment. To start this project, I embossed this size 8 tag using Tim Holtz 3D Lumber Embossing Folder, colored with different shades of Distress Paints and distressed it with Distress Ink Pad.

The sun ray background was created with Gesso and yellow Distress Paint mixture over a layering stencil using a palette knife. I also randomly added some Rubs on images on the background.

A sentiment were stamped on a piece of card stock and distressed with a distress tool and Distress Ink Pad. The vintage photo was from Tim Holtz paper stash.

The fasteners and metal embellishments were attached on the photo and the sentiment to finish off this project. I really love the sentiment "HOPE IS NEVER LOST" on this whatever the weather theme and hope you got inspired, too. I am looking forward to seeing what you create. Join us and happy crafting! :)
