So today we have a tag that I created for an online Blog Challenge, Simon Says Stamp and Show ... a Tag! and also their Anything Goes Challenge, Simon Says ,,,,,,, Anything Goes !! :-) . I have always wanted to submit an entry to one of these things, so I thought, why not?
First off, thanks to The Graphics Fairy at http://graphicsfairy.blogspot.com/ for the free graphic of the bunny. She has tons of free graphics you can use--check out her site!!
I printed the bunny on Stampin' Up! vanilla cardstock, then again on regular copy paper. I cut the bunny out from the copy paper and used that to mask the bunny on the cardstock. I was then free to color the tag with Distress Ink. Once I removed the mask, the bunny just popped off the paper, so I left him alone.
I then added a distressed piece of fence from Tim Holtz' On The Fence die, two tea roses made with Tim Holtz' Tattered Pincone die, some Tim Holtz baubles, a Prima Walnut Blossom branch, some SU chantilly lace ribbon, and the Happy Easter sentiment, which I printed out from the computer and aged with Distress ink.
What do you think?
I think your tag is DARLING! Your vintage bunny from Graphics Fairy is so darn cute. Your masking technique looks amazing and the bunny really does POP off of the tag! Thanks so much for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
