Fall Tag

Fall Tag - Hi! Welcome to my blog. I have created this sweet little card for my DT project for Creative Card Crew.

I used papers from 2 different pads. The flowered and orange embossed papers are Kaiser Craft, These Days and 7 Gypsies Venice. 

The image on my tag is Gnome Boy Fall by our sponsor Birdie Brown. This was one of her Freebies. You can find her blog with her freebies here. Her images are so cute, you will want to check out her Etsy shop as well.

I colored Gnome Boy with Copics. I hand cut the tag and inked with old paper. The ribbon came from my scrap ribbon jar.

I dragged out some old leave punches for the leaves and tied a bow using some cord and my Bow Easy.

My sentiment is SU, as is the punches. 

The 2 large gemstones are brads and I also used small gemstones (not brads) on the sentiment.

Tweet, Tweet - It is time for another challenge at Creative Card Crew and this fortnights challenge is Hand Made flowers. It is always so much fun to see what everyone does for this challenge. There are so many fun ways to make flowers and they are always so beautiful!

My DP is Prima's Madeline.

My image is Birdie Brown's dream-in.  I colored it with Copics. Can you see my hint of clouds in the background. They are really fun and easy to do.

Now for my handmade flowers. The brown one my dear crafting buddy, Milly made it for me. My wrist was injured in November and I have had my arm in a cast or brace since then, so Milly took pity on me. She punched the Crete paper with a circle punch and pinched and fanned the circle. She then dipped them in glass glitter and then added them together to create the flower. She added a pearl to the center with more glitter glass around it. But when I arrived home, some of the petal had fallen off and I had to re glue them in place, but I could not fit it back under the pearl as nicely, so I added the Fairy glass glitter over the center. That is my touch to the flower!

The teal flower is all my own. I used a SB die and then wet and cringled the layers. Once they were dry, I inked them with Peacock Feathers distress ink and added a brad with the fairy glitter glass.

My leave is another SB and I added 2 stick pins to the spray.
