My Tags for day 8 - cracklin AI (eta 2nd tag)

Post by rinda »

Here's the first of two tags. The other is still drying. For this one, I used the large Club Scrap Christmas Collage stamp in the background, as well as a Club Scrap Evergreen branch. TFor the red ornament, I painted a chipboard swirl with gold metallic paint and then added crackle medium. After it dried overnight, I put the alcohol ink on top - I used cranberrry and a little plum. For the green ornament, I painted a chipboard swirl with the silver dabber and let it dry, then used alcohol ink on top (Meadow, bottle and lettuce). It's not crackles, but still shimmery and marbled.
I'll add the other tag when the crrackle finishes drying.

Edited to add: Here's the second tag. It answers the question, how many ways can you use the regular grungeboard elements to make them look Christmas-y, when you don't have the seasonal grungeboard! :roll: Went with a pure purple background and a stampendous medallion stamp, highlighted with Club Scrap swirls in white. For the crowns, I used the silver metallic dabber and then added crackle medium. No alcohol ink on these, but I liked them this way, so I left them.

Rinda, that tag is just scrumptious. Great use of today's techniques on your special tag. TFS
