Dies

Tuesday with Tara {take 87}

Happy Tuesday!
I apologize in advance if extra bits of spring goodness are peeking through on my projects, especially if it’s feeling like you are in the middle of a never-ending winter!

The background of this card is a bold abstract I created using Color Burst and a stencil.  If it looks familiar, it’s because I made a variety in one sitting and have been creating cards with the pieces as inspiration strikes!  Any stencil with a bold, open design would work great for the “sprinkle & spritz” technique I’ve used.

Here’s a close up of the white embossed sentiment and some of the cute little die cut birds…

These little birds are such a fun addition to a card!  I feel like I need to invest in more birds to go with this sentiment… these are by Memory Box, and while they aren’t in stock I’m sure Raya could help you buy something similar 😉

if you love a good discount (don’t we all!?!)  check out the current specials on the online store here!  There’s a ton of new stuff arriving these days, I know my wish list is a whole lot bigger than my budget… lol, I hope you don’t suffer from the same affliction!

inky hugs,

Tara

Tuesday with Tara {take 86}

Happy Tuesday!

I love combining stamps that have been in my collection for years with newer tools, like an old favorite negative image stamp by Hero Arts from my stash as the background (inked with a couple shades of Distress Ink) and newer wildflower dies by Tim Holtz.

I grouped together three of the dies, simple cut from black cardstock, to create a bouquet.  I added some neutral patterned paper from a 6×6 Prima paper pad to frame my focal point, adding a bit of Distress ink and distressing with a tool for texture.  A few wraps of thin jute string are another simple embellishment that adds a lot!

I really like layering my word dies over a white duplicate to help them stand out.  It draws your eye to them without adding bulk. For tiny elements like words and florals, matte medium is a fabulous adhesive as you will not see it when it is dry!

Thanks for visiting!  Have a creative week…

inky hugs,

Tara
