The September tag is my "inky mixed media" tag. My first time making a multi-layered background with different types of inks and stamping.
The tag started white. I coloured it by daubing my green gelatos and blue distress inks, and shimmer spray on my craftmat. I sprayed it with water, and swirled my tag around in it. I did this a couple of times drying in between to get the right effect. I stamped the writting with my gelatos. I stamped in archival black ink (birds, branches and flowers). I used a stencil and sprayed with a peach coloured glimmer spray for a litte highlight. I sponged on a bit of yellow distress ink in the end to add a little depth. The snowman (Tim Holtz) was heat embossed and fussy-cut. I coloured it with copics for a bit of shading and used some distress glitter for the hat and scarf (after colouring with distress inks and my water brush). I added a bit of irridescent glitter on the shadow marks of the snowman.
