Brush Calligraphy: Travel Tag

February 21, 2019 ~ Sathya ~ 2 Comments

Hi Crafty peeps,

Seized a moment to do some calligraphy drills. And, as always ended with Rumi’s quote.

Used Pentel touch brush pen for doing brush calligraphy here. These pens are short nibbed ones and gives a crisp neat outcome always!

Chopped this MUDRA XL tag a bit to suit my need. Ultra smooth surface is just perfect not only for stamping but also for the Calligraphy!

Quote on one side and recipient’s name on the other side!

My neighbour here came to surprise me before her India trip with some Homemade, but ended up getting these Tags as her surprise 🙂 Made 1 for her and one teeny tiny name tag for her baby girl’s bag.

That’s how handmade brings in Joy to the souls around us 🙂

Hope you to like it!

Harvest Blessings Card : Graciellie Designs

October 17, 2018 ~ Sathya ~ 6 Comments

Hi Friends!

Made a mixedmedia Tag today using the digital stamps: Harvest Blessings from Graciellie Designs.

I so loved the free style illustrations and the accompanying beautiful quotes. It screams Autumn!

Used a XL chipboard tag for the base.
Used geometric stencil and embossing paste for the bg texture.
Added White crackle paste randomly for added textures.
Misted with blue, brow gray LSG sprays for the base colors.
Printed the floral digis in varying sizes, colored them using Prisma colored pencils and fussy cut.
The base of the floral clusters made using tinted cheesecloth, black sisal fibers., lace bits.
The floral images are mounted around the focal point as the sentiment, which is printed and matted onto black cs and distressed n edges using brown moments ink.
For further interests, sequins, art stones, dew droplets, enamel dots were added.

Hope you like it!

Hi Crafty peeps,

Am here today with a Mixedmedia Tag. Attempted for a textured base, which mimiced a galaxy look a bit, at the end of the make.

Straight away to the pics..

Took a standard sized chipboard tag
Applied Prima Finnabair Stone effect paste- Pumice randomly followed by Prima white crackle paste through Timholtz speckles stencil.
Air dry and applied Black gesso over the tag.
Used LSG magicals Tiffany’s blue, Cotton candy pink and Creme Brulee cream one after another at intervals and misted with water to run down and blend.
Finally applied Finnabair vintage gold over the textured surface.
Then generously splashed with Finnabair Art Alchemy paints Sparks: Dragon’e eyes.
Centrally added a golden thread, to it added Finnabair mechanicals Wings and Tin heart which were black gessoed and waxed with Vintage gold and Rose gold respectively.
Golden microbeads were added to the thread around wings.
Timholtz chitchat sticker is foam mounted to finish off.

Hope you like it!
