12 tags of 2013 - July

Hi everyone,

It's time for Tim's July tag, and I'm again just at the last minute with my entry. Tim has made another beautiful tag ​​full with great techniques. So cool to make a background with a brayer and stains. I never thought of doing that on my own. When I saw the tag in the beginning of the month, I knew I wanted to use my new London stamps for this tag.



To fade the stamps a bit into the background, I tapped the stamp on the inkpad first, and then wiped it with the ink path. This leaves a small amount of ink on the stamp, and a bit more ink remains into the notches and that creates more dimension.



The pocket watch I first painted black and then coated it with Rock Candy. And I stamped the pocket watch on top with the gold Paint Dabber.



The "thank you" I have taken over from the original tag of Tim, because that theme is independence day.





Thank you for stopping by! Love to see you next time!

Hugs,
Sandra

Wow Sandra - I do see your signature stars. Very nice but you never told us what it is for - I see the words thank you and baby. You usually have something specific that you use your wonderful creations for.

Hi Sandy,
Thank you for you comment, let me explain the tag a bit. The tag is Londen themed. The baby! is above the stamped word London. So it says Londen Baby! It's from the Austin Powers movie. Do you know that movie? Hugs, Sandra
