This is yet another project inspired by Miss Linda Ledbetter and her Creative Crew. This week's technique for the Compendium of Curiosities Challenge was a remnant rub resist. I love the detail it gave this fun tag.
I went back to my usual brown color palate, but added a small pop of blue to try and spice things up a bit. One trick I used in this project was to make a "ribbon" for the tag with tissue tape. Thank you Dyan Reavely for that one!
You can also see the layers of ink, stenciling and distress. Notice also that I edged the tag with silver gilders paste, the perfect metallic finish. Lots of metal elements always make a tag feel substantial.
Again I used lot of vellum elements from Tim. I just adore these!
This week's challenge is being sponsored by The Funkie Junkie Boutique, check them out along with all the inspiration from Linda's team.
Cheers,
Rhea
beautiful tag, Rhea!

ReplyDeleteHello Rhea. Your tag is a wonderful example of Tim's Remnant Rub Resist technique. I love the browns and blues of your background. Your butterflies are so lovely and the Industrial Trim along the bottom of your tag is a nice touch, too. Thanks for sharing with us at CC3C. <3 Candy

ReplyDeleteBrowns & blues are a favorite color combination for me, you've used them beautifully here. Your collected textures, metal, vellum, ink, industrial stickers, all work together with the Remnant Rubs so well. Very, very cool tag!
