Stephanie here sharing my steampunk themed Father's Day Double Tag. I love everything steampunk and jumped at the idea to create a Father's Day Tag. Using prestained tags made this project a quick one. Let's get started!

1. Use washi tape to adhere the tea stained tags together

2. Stamp the bottom left of the tags with the Steampunk Pocket Watch & Scale.

3. Randomly stamp the Diamond Repeating Pattern Back stamp over the tags making sure to avoid the Pocket Watch and Scale. On the top right portion of the tag stamp Time Flies quote.

 4. Stamp "Father" over the scale portion of the tag. 

Check out the amazing details in the pocket watch in the photo below. It blows my mind how detailed it is!

I hope you enjoyed this Father's Day tag. I know I had fun creating it! Check the links below for more BPM goodness!

Time Flies.....

Hello Again Fans!

Are you loving this months theme "Things with Wings"?

Soooooo many Blank Page Muse Stamps to create with for this theme - my tag art today uses three different stamps from the fab range at the Store!
 

You know I love to decorate tags so I hope you enjoy my mixed media double tag creation today!

Supplies List:

Blank Page Muse Stamp: Feathered Pair of Wings

Blank Page Muse Stamp: Birds on Wires Silhouette Border designed by Terri Sproul

Blank Page Muse Stamp: Time Flies it's Up to You to Navigate

Blank Page Muse Stamp: Feather Art designed by Pam Bray

Gelli Plate Printed Double Tags note: you can cut your own tags to size from your gelli prints if you don't have any!!

Embossing Ink Stamp Pad, Black Fine Embossing Powder and Embossing Powder in Complimentary Colour

Black Archival Ink Pad

White Tissue Paper

Kraft Paper

Collage "Characters" used here by Art Tea Life

Various embellishments: string, muslin cloth, cork style border strip etc.

Tools: heat gun, scissors, glue

 

 

Instructions:

Use pre printed tags or cut your own from gelli plate printed card. I always have some extra things on hand to grab and create with!

Use the Feather Art stamp with embossing ink and embossing powder to randomly add some more dimension to the printed background and add a little "sparkle"!

Use the Black Archival Ink to stamp the Birds on Wires onto white tissue paper. Tear out the stamped image.

Use Gel Medium to adhere the tissue paper stamps onto the tag background. Tearing the image allows it to "blend" into the background better than a straight cut edged piece of tissue. Be careful when adhering the tissue down as it can tear easily once wet. Allow to dry.

Whilst your tag background is drying stamp the wings and sentiment onto Kraft Paper using the clear embossing ink pad. Use fine black embossing powder and heat. Fussy cut the wings and tear the sentiment.

Gather your collage elements, stamped images and embellishments. Glue the embossed and fussy cut wings to your collage character. Soooo cute!!!!!

Arrange all of your elements onto the tag background and adhere everything with glue. To finish tie some string to the top of each of the double tag.
 



I always like to stamp extra images so I can make more than one tag at a time. I created another double tag with my extras:
 

Happy Stamping and have a great week!!!

Sharon :)

Time Flies!

Hi Blank Page Muse Fans!!

Time for me to share another creation with you!

I've made another postcard creation this month entitled "Time Flies" and I don't think there is a truer statement especially as we get older LOL!!

I wanted a vintage feel but still have a "travel" theme as I have been focusing on making Travel themed postcards this month here at the Blog!

Spread your Wings and "Come Fly With Me" and find out how I created this!!



Supplies:
Blank Page Muse Stamps:
Pocket Watch with Face
Feathered Pair of Wings
Time Flies It's Up To You To Navigate (only used "Time Flies" words)
Art Journaling #2 Set
Seth Apter Baked Textures:
Vintage Beeswax
Patina Oxide
Gold Embossing Powder
Index Card 6 x 4 OR Card cut to 6 x 4 size
Linen Finish White Cardstock
Memento Rich Cocoa Ink Pad
Embossing Ink Pad
Vegetable Glycerin
Distress Ink Pads: walnut stain, vintage photo, tea dye, old paper, lucky clover, worn lipstick
Embellishments: ie. muslin cloth, cotton
Tools: heat gun, scissors, paint brush, sponge applicator for Distress Inks, cotton tip or makeup applicators

Instructions:
Start by gathering your stamps and ink pads. Used here is a lined index card as the lines add texture and age to the look.

Stamp using the "aged brown" coloured Distress inks with the wording and texture stamps from the Art Journaling Set. Use the sponge applicator to cover the unstamped areas with colour.

Use the paint brush to apply a thin layer of glycerine to the entire card. (Glycerin can be used for embossing - not my idea - I have been watching Youtube videos where people have been using it!)

Add the Vintage Beeswax powder to the entire card. Use your heat gun to "emboss".

Add some more glycerine to the edges of the card and apply the Patina Oxide enamel and emboss with the heat gun.

You now have a lovely shiny background and you can still see the background stamping through it plus a contrast colour to border the postcard.

Next step is to stamp our images for the front of the postcard. Using the Rich Cocoa stamp pad stamp the Pocket Watch with Face onto the Linen finish cardstock and fussy cut (here the "top" of the stamp has been cut off)

Add some basic colour to the watch face using a cotton bud and distress ink. This is very easy to do - no colouring skills required - just add small amounts of colour to the cotton bud and rub onto the card to achieve a subtle effect.

Stamps the wings onto Linen cardstock with embossing ink and emboss with gold embossing powder. Fussy cut and separate the wings.

Finally stamp the "Time Flies" onto card with the Rich Cocoa ink. Cut the "Time Flies" words only and edge with Distress Ink.

Gather the embellishments you want to use and start to arrange everything on the base postcard. Adhere the wings on the sides of the Watch.

Adhere the muslin cloth, cotton and main images to the front of the postcard.



Place the wording in the bottom corner.

Print out a postcard backing - used here by Art Tea Life. you can also make your own. I like the vintage style of this one which matches the front of my card!



 The completed postcard ready to "wing" it's way around the world before time gets away!

Thanks for joining me - hope you enjoyed the process!
