Not A Card

 

 Hello Monday, my friends! And welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the  STAMP IT/STAMPTEMBER  Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is: NOT A CARD

I chose to create a tag for this week's challenge. I've filled it with lots of Tim Holtz and Simon Says Stamp goodness.  

ACCEPT OUR WINGS

  

I   began by collaging some archival papers and moths onto the tag.  

Next, I did some ink smooshing with Citrine, Ocean and Field inks. 

I used the heat tool to speed up the process and help set the ink. Then, I  used Simon's Grid stencil and Terracotta ink to some areas of the tag. Ooh, definitely liking this look.

I used the Tim Holtz Deconstructed set to add some stamped images also. Then, I dried the ink again, and it is a bit lighter in color, but that's ok. I added some Big Chat words, and a Quote Chip. I edged the tag with black ink, and added a Factory Tag with a black brad at the top. 

I am liking the mix of industrial and natural here.
