Red and Pink tag

Hi everyone,

Can you already feel the love in the air? Within a few days it's Valentine's Day and Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge has come up with a perfect challenge. One that also fits the non-Valentine crafters: "Red + Pink". As long as there is pink and red in your project!
I hadn't planned in advance what kind of project it would be, only that I wanted to use red and pink. I started with applying a thin layer of Gesso with a Palette Knife. The next step was applying Ruby and Neon Pink paint with the Swirl and Dots Stencil from Simon Says Stamp with a baby wipe. From there I used Picked Raspberry and filled in the background. Around the edges, I applied some pink tones Gelatos for more depth.



With the Latticework stencil with Walnut Stain and with Schoolhouse and Black Soot I added more layers. Then it was time for some washi tape, but not before I cut out the Pointed Feathers from Simon Says Stamp and stuck them under the washi!
