Easter Tags

I made these Easter tags using Taylored Expressions Tag-A-Long Easter stamp set. These images are so cute and tiny, I thought of using them for tags. Not sure what to do with them yet, maybe give them away to my daughter's teachers, or co-workers. But either way, I got to finally use them! Aren't they just the cutest??

The papers are from DCWV Spring Mat Stack from ages ago, and the tags were die cut using Paper Smooches Tag Stitched Die. The images were colored using Spectrum Noir alcohol markers, and some glittered with Wink of Stella clear glitter markers.




Enjoy!

PB&J - I'll Always Stick By Your Side

My stamp of the month from The Stamps of Life came in today and I just wanted to play! I was skeptical at first when I saw the reveal, but it quickly turned to excitement as soon as I got my hands on it. So here's my first take on this month's PB&J theme.



I used kraft card stock as the base, white card stock as layer, and background paper is from Basic Grey. I stamped the PB & J jars, text and sentiment using Memento Tuxedo ink, but used Close to My Heart's Saddle Ink for the peanuts and Hero Arts Shadow Ink Grape Juice for the grape. The jars and peanuts were colored in using my Spectrum Noirs, pretty easy as I didn't really want to do any blending. I used a mix of Gold Browns (GB 8 and 9) and Purple (PL 3 and 4). The tag die is from Paper Smooches and I just used a scrap of brown ribbon to embellish.
