Purple Mixed Media Gift Tag

Hey guys!!! Today I'll be making a mixed media gift tag that could accompany a book for a friend.

I'll be entering in this in

1. All Sorts of Challenge #358 - http://allsortschallenge.blogspot.in/2016/04/week-358-purple-passion.html

2. Love To Scrap #75 - http://lovetoscrapchallengeblog.blogspot.in/2016/04/ltscb-75-big-bow-theory_4.html

For this project, i had to include a big bow in my creation.

3. Stamplorations Stencil Sunday #40 - http://stamplorations.blogspot.in/2016/04/stencil-sunday-april-3.html

I had to use a stencil in my project. I used an alphabet stencil.

Materials Required

• A piece of cardboard measuring 3 X5 inches. A piece of lilac glitter tissue
• Pearl lilac acrylic paint, Dusty Concord distress ink and gesso
• Alphabet stencil and also stickers
• Two shades of purple washi tapes and silver ribbon
• A brad and some flower punch cut-outs in different sizes
• Adhesive pearls and rhinestones

Method

1. Apply two coats of the gesso on the cardboard. Let it dry and stick the alphabet stickers in a random manner.

2. Apply two coats of pearl lilac paint with a sponge. After the paint is dry remove the alphabet stickers.

3. Stick the tissue vertically. Then add the washi tapes and a string of adhesive pearls at the bottom on the tag.

4. Use a black gel pen and the stencil to draw out the alphabets. 

5. Stick the book cut-out and the other embellishments.

6. Take a small piece of cardstock and add some Dusty Concord distress ink. Spray some water on it to age it a little. Write your sentiment on it. I wrote a quote.

6. Make a bow out of sliver ribbon and stick it at the top of the cardboard.

I hope you liked this. Have a sunny day :)
