Distress Ink tag again today. Along the same theme as my last post I made this in a recent Chocolate Baroque flower tag workshop. I love the colours of this one! They just blended so well and are vibrant and yet soft. The main colour is Mowed Lawn together with some Salty Ocean. I started by inking the background to get colour blocks to have a base. Then I stamped in the same colour inks using the Studded Lattice stamp. I think I also added some leaf detail with one of the patterns from Seasonal Fragments. Then the flower is the lovely Magnolia Stamp and the words from Artistic Affirmations.
I used the waterbrush to blend the colours on the flower – using mainly blue – but the water activated the green underneath to give a beautiful blend. Once the tag was dry I added some white highlights with the White Sharpie marker.
I was really pleased with the result – this one will definitely be mounted onto a card blank 🙂
happy crafting
