Our design team thought they would bring you a bit spring into your house using our wonderful Spring 2011 Bahama Cruise Colors – Limited Edition Glimmer Mist – let set sail and see some tags and cards on our cruise 🙂
When I think Spring, I think of flowers, butterflies and gardens. So I decided to alter a large manila tag reflecting a cheery garden using Tattered Angels’ new Spring colours. I first misted the tag with the bright sunny yellow of Sun Sisters glimmer mist. I then stamped the image of the plants on the tag and embossed it with clear embossing powder. Next I misted on shades of blue and green using Trunk Bay, Bahama Blue and Puerto Rico. You’ll see that the embossed image resists the mists beautifully, allowing the yellow mist to show through. To give the tag more texture, I brushed on some Glimmer Glam in Organic Garden and ran my tag through my embossing machine, giving it some raised dots. The tag was finished off with some hand cut flower and butterfly details, mist-dyed seam binding, and lace.
Anna:
using: Bahama Blue, Rum Punch,Sun Sisters
JJ:
The base tag was sprayed with a gradation of Sun Sisters, Rum Punch and Marmalade. The lace, grungeboard and small flowers & leaf were coloured with Trunk Bay. The canvas die cut was dyed with Bahama Blue. The larger flowers start with Bahama Blue in the centre and work out to Puerto Rico on the outer edges.
Mini Card Set: I used four of the new spring colors on this card set: Marmalade, Rum Punch, Sun Sisters, and Bahama Blue.
Embrace Life Tag: I used all six of the new spring colors on this tag. I sprayed some glimmer mist into paint trays and painted the tag.
Aren’t you longing for spring now ?
