Merry Little Labels Holiday Catalog Preview

As I said in Tuesday’s post, my second upline Rachel Tessman does monthly gathering with her group of demonstrators either in person or on Facebook (since not everyone lives near).  Here is the second make & take we did.  This one featured a new stamp set, new punch, new papers and a new ribbon.  All that in three little tags.

Each tag is 2″ by approximately 4″ before using the banner triple punch to notch them.  I used the Aqua Painter and ink from the lid of the Old Olive stamp pad to “swoosh” over the stamped images to give a little more color.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch with Butterfly Basics

I’m playing along with the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge today.  I stamped the flowers using Staz-on then colored them with the Calypso Coral and Old Olive watercolor pencils then I blended using the blender pens.  I also used an Aqua Painter and some watery Soft Sky ink to go around the image to soften it.  I attached the water color paper to a piece of Calypso Coral, wrapped the baker’s twine around it and then used dimensionals to add it to the card.
