TWO TAGS AND HATS

 Hello everyone,

I made it back before the end of the week and going to share more mixed media I suppose you could say, tags, with hats and a slight gambling theme..

First off, I glued these playing cards onto a piece of cardstock Franchivelle

heavy weight card stock.

While they were drying I covered these two with tissue paper ,pre printed

like newspaper and trimmed and inked the edges..

back to the tags, they were trimmed and inked..

Then stenciled with Mont Marte modelling paste,

it is thick but moist and stencils perfectly.

different patterns and designs..

When that was dry, and it sure does not take long because

Holly walked right across them and I nearly had a fit..

but no damage done...phew.

these gears and cogs were die cut and then inked..

Not the best rusty look but not too bad..

Then I layered them up and glued, paper and metal.

Then I sprayed with Tim Hiltz distress stains, 

vintage photo, and ground espresso.

Out came my top hat die, cut in black and added tiny

red hearts from Temu..

This was in this picture folder and gave me another laugh, Holly in a basket that was so small for her,but at least she was out of my way..

anyway, tags done, the same but different..

added the ephemera I made with the gears etc..

and dangle sentiment tags..

kept going, I never know when to stop...

added Tim Holts paper dolls minature

and this one..

Love the grunge.

there is the pair, all ready to go..
