Embossing resist tag

Hi everyone,  today I'm sharing a tag which I have created using the embossing resist technique. I have also used one of Bee Crafty's larger stamps on a smaller project to show their versatility. 

To begin I inked the Scripted Bee stamp with versafine clair twilight ink and stamped the part I wanted onto a blank Dina Wakley Media #8 tag. I then covered this with Ranger clear embossing powder and heat set it.

Next I spritzed the tag with Picked Raspberry and Spun Sugar distress oxide spray and then a little water. I left this to dry a little, then used kutchen towel to wipe excess spray off the embossed areas.

I then stamped the bee part of the stamp on seperate card using versafine clair warm breeze. I heat embossed this with clear embossing powder. I cut the bee out.

Next I used Ranger collage medium to glue the bee over the bee on the tag. I used blobs of the glue, so that it is raised up from the tag.

Finally I chose some of the Bee Wordy sticker sentiments and cut them down before adding to the tag using collage medium. I then drew a black pencil line around them on the tag.

Products used:
Versafine Clair - Warm Breeze, Twighlight 

Thanks for taking a look.

Alison CT - Simple Art Journal Page

Hi everyone, today I'm sharing a simple art journal page using the new Galleria Transparencies. 
I began by using a page where I had cleaned the Chrysanthemum 6 inch inkable.

Next, I used a blending brush to blend carved pumpkin distress oxide around the edge of the page.

Next, I stamped the strip of boxes, from the Journaling Essentials 2 stamp set, to the top right and bottom left of the page, but I only applied ink to 10 of the boxes. 
I then used distress collage medium to add two of the faces, from the Galleria Transparency sheet, to the page.
Next, using the Typewriter Alpha stamp set, I stamped the word Sisters in the bottom left quarter of the page using Versafine Clair Nocturne ink. 

Finally, I cut out three of the smaller words from Beautiful and Brave Transparency sheet and added them to the top right quarter of the page using distress collage medium. 
Products used:
Transparency Prints - Galleria, Beautiful and Brave clear on black
Wordage Stamps - Typewriter Alpha 
Art Stamps - Journaling Essential 2
6" Inkables - Chrysanthemum 
Distress Oxide - Carved Pumpkin 

Thanks for taking a look.
