This fortnight the recipe for the tag challenge at Dragons Dream Tag It On is: “Mica/Ink Mists, Autumn Colours, Glaze”
Oohhh! I was looking forward to a play with this one!
Using the Cameo, I cut a series of Oak Leaves and a few Acorns from a natural cardstock. I stamped the leaves then sprayed the with various home-made DI sprays that have mica powder in them. I sprayed the base tag in the same way before using the same stamp with Dried Marigold DI. I crumpled the leaves while they were still wet for added texture and to try and simulate fallen leaves in the Autumn. I layered the acorns, coloured them with DI pens and added dimensional glaze to the lower part. Then I “dripped” the glaze here and there to look like drops of moisture. I topped it off with a resin frame that I made using clear resin and fine glitter.
Here is a closeup that shows the detail a little bit better.
Thanks for popping by to see what I have been up to. I love to read your comments so if you feel inclined to say a word or two – please do.
Cheers, Esther. xoxo
