* Funkie Junkie Boutique : Icy and Cold

 

Hello,

I am delighted to be a Guest DT at The Funkie Junkie Boutique Blog this month where the theme is Icy and Cold.

I made a pair of tags featuring Tim Holtz's Paper Dolls.

I decided to go with cool, sage green colours and cream rather than the standard blues and greys for this theme. I brayered PaperArtsy Fresco paints onto the die cut tag, then added some grit paste through a stencil.. I heat embossed a mandala stamp and stars from AALL & Create with white powders and added a few silver embossed stars for good measure. I swiped the edges of the tag along the embossing ink and added silver powder to the edges.

I cut some 3D Impresslit Snowflakes. I dipped them into watered down Peeled Paint ink and when dry added some Peeled Paint Distress Glaze, followed by iridescent embossing powder. I also die cut some snowflakes from glitter card.

I heat embossed some chipboard florals with white sparkly powder. I die cut winter foliage using Tim's Sizzix dies.

The snowflakes and foliage was adhered to the tag forming a cluster and the paper dolls were popped on top with washi tape beneath their feet for grounding.

Three tiny, sparkly gems were added and I called my tags done!

Here are a couple of close up photos:

And here are some of the products I used:

That's all for now.

Thanks for stopping by today!
