MIX51 Dream Tag
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: Cook22

 Hmm, more like a nightmare than a dream, this one. I really made it for MIX51, Speedbumps, but I'm not sure if it really qualifies. I coated the chipboard tag with white acrylic, and then stamped the flourishes with Liquid Pearls which definitely gave me texture and dimension. But then they resisted everything I threw at them, so I don't think I succeeded in camouflaging them as we were meant to. But, since there is at least 3 hours work in this little tag, I'm counting it as an effort!
After the flourishes dried I did so many things I can't even remember them all - I misted with Perfect Pearls Patina, I brushed Perfect Pearls on, I added some metallic acrylic paints, tried some stencilling which looked terrible so it all got wiped off again. Stickles around the edge, silver and blue ribbons, a little silver charm thing and a gem all went on. I added a vellum butterfly inked with purple and then embossed with Iridescent Ice, the body embossed with silver EP.

Sabrina, this is so pretty. The colours are soft and dreamy and the vellum butterfly just adds to that feeling. I love it!

I think - like the rest of us - you worry too much. Here I was - sitting with my mouth hanging open and staring at the BEAUTY of your card - and I thought I had better read what you wrote. I am so sorry you are disappointed. I sure am not. This is gorgeous and I think well worth all the effort you put into it.

I'm so sorry that your challenge piece was such a challenge, but WOW, it turned out amazing! It's fine if the color didn't camouflage the speed bumps and your layers of colors complement them so nicely. I hope you are coming to like the result even if it didn't come out as you expected. Thanks for playing with the Mix-ability challenge this week.
