Here I am with a new creation for you!

My sister in law asked me to make something to thanks her coworkers during coronavirus pandemic time. They have to change wokplaces for a while.

So I choose to make a tag using Free Hugs Arts Stamp Kit from 2019 Live Laugh Love Collection and still available in Craftheaven shop. 

Design papers used are from 12x12 Maja Design Denim & Girls collection.

The thag is made using Bazzill Classic 12x12x- Kraft.

I used Tilda Doily die ... for image bacground.

 

The bow on dthe top is made with Vintage Seam Binding.

I added few white roses  and White Gesso here and there oner the tag.

I sealed my image with Tim Holtz Distress Micro Glaze. 

This is the perfects water resistent sealer for all my craft projects.

Heve a nice day and happy crafting!

Tutorial Thursday... Colouring with Distress - La La Land Crafts

Hi!

Today I try to show you my colouring with Distress inks.

I decided to colour Marci with Tulips.

I take few pics to show you step by step how I colour most of my La La La Crafts images.

I always start with skin. I used vintage photo and tattered rose... mixed together.

Then I colour hair... first I used antique linen..

and when the colour is dry I shade them using walnut stan.

Then I colour my tulips... using fired brick and tattered rose...

Next step... colouring a dress. 

 I used a mix of milled lavender and worn lipstic.

I start hit hat... first with my pink and then with hickory smoke...

I used the same colour - hicckory smoke - for first step of shadding a dress and tulips..

Done... All shadded with hickory smoke...

Now I change my brush for shadding with black soot...

When I finish I change again a brush... I use a thin brush for borders...

I use Gelly white pen for highlight eyes..

... and some glitter Sakura pen for tulips and shoes...

Hope you can see the shine ...

At the end I select one of my dies  - Nested Frames Large Die -

and cut it out.

You can see my card in tomorrow's post...

Thank you for stopping by!!
