| | I am working on my very first swaps ever. I made a New Year's resolution to craft more so I signed up for two....I wanted to play with techniques and add a lot of depth and dimension to the tags that are part of the swap we are also supposed to use "recycled" items...
Recycled items on this tag:
Chipboard from food boxes, halloween decorations, cardboard
My favorite technique: Making the "aged" metal by embossing in gold and then swiping black craft very lightly with a sponge and then clear embossing for an aged appearance. The skulls were a BRIGHT silver so I aged them with Rub and Buff Antique Copper to grunge them up.
I hope this fits the idea! Let me know your thoughts.... |
