The Mixed Media Monthly Challenge #20 - Time Flies

Hi Everyone!

Today I created a project for The Mixed Media Monthly Challenge blog. This month's change is called Time Flies.

This is a perfect way to get my creative mojo moving.

I have this piece of paper from Basic Grey and I don't have many left and I didn't want to use it (horder tendencies!).

I decided to try to recreate it on a tag.

It sort of looks like it but I couldn't stand the dots in perfect order. I used a little too much brown.

I created the circles/dots with TCW stencil #203s called Mini Circle Grid.

Sorry for having no step by steps but I deleted some pictures by accident on my camera. 

I used TCW Time Travel stencil (TCW201s) to create this tag.

Used acrylic paints, modeling paste, gelatos, an old image of friends, and quote.

Hope you like my tag.

Don't forget to head over to see everyone's creations on MMMC!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Balzer Bits, Fragments and Remnants by The Crafter's Workshop

Hello.

The Crafter's Workshop has new

Balzer Bits

Fragments

Remnants

I thought I would show you what they looked like.

You can use them just like a stencil.

The best part is they are small and you can take them with you.

Today I have a tag to show you where I added the Graffiti Bit.

I used painters tape and only use part of the stencil to add a stripe down the tag. 

You may not see the letters but using the tape it gives the Bit a completely different look.

Once  it was dry, I added the Music Sheet stencil in black paint.

I cut out the skeleton from the Dance Macabre stamp from Stampendous and attached it to the tag.

Here is a close up of the skeleton.

The number 31 are wood embellishments, the tag I painted with the same colors as the tag, I added some glass beads and attached it to the tag with a brad.

I did add additional glass beads on the tag here and there.

It was fun to create.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

  

Tag Swap G+ Community

In June I joined a tag swap in a G+ Community.

These are the tags I received from +June Walker.

They are amazing.

I love the face and all the colors.

 

Isn't this cute?

I love the little heart that dangles from the top.

Love the red, white and blue on this tag.

I wish I can draw birds.

Here is my card I sent to June.

It didn't start out very pretty.

I didn't think I had any before and after pictures but I found them.

Here is what it looked like to start with.

It was in my box of tags that are full of paint, spray inks, etc.

Quite ugly but wait until you see the next picture.

So I tried to use a weird color combination and some stencils.

Ugly!!! So Ugly.

In the end I completely repainted it and added modeling paste, beads, brads and glitter.

Love this. So pretty. It was a perfect tag for June.

Thank you June!

I love your tags.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Dream A Little Dream

I can't believe it's Friday already.

Time sure flies when you're having fun.

 

Today I have tag for you.

The background was created with Gelatos, TCWStencil #479s Random Stars, and Pan Pastels

 

This tag has been sitting on my table for weeks now.

Finally inspiration strikes with a image.

 

This image of a mother and child.

I love it.

I don't know where I got it from.

I added scraps of paper to the background, found the star, added glitter, stamped the tag and added color. Finished.

 

Here is another view of the star.

I didn't realize until now that I used a star brad to hold the star and tag.

 

Here is the image.

I scanned it in so I can use it again.
