LAYERED HEARTS




...please take responsibility for the energy that you bring into this space...
- Dr Jill Bolte-Taylor -


...hello eveyone...today I'm sharing with you a Tag I've made & some sneaky peeks of my last DT makes for CraftWork Cards...I do hope you like them...



...I took a plain manilla tag & randomly coated it with PaperArtsy Fresco Paint in Sherbert then overlaid it with Pickled Raspberry Di, added some splodges of white emulsion and dried the brush off on the tag!...


...I cut a primitive heart from white denim and stapled that to the tag then added a rosette flower made with some gorgeous Basic Grey papers...


...a pair of crackled wings with a yummy leather heart adorn the top of the rosette flower...


...I put the heart through the sun ray texture fade, I was hoping it would work on the leather & was pleased to see it did...




...I'm happy with this Tag it's my second journey into PINK, hope you like it too...

...also here are a couple of sneaky peeks of my final DT pieces for CWCards...



...I'll be able to share these with you very soon...

...thank you for dropping by today, so glad your here...

  3. Hi Mel,
    I think this is terrific - well worth braving the pink! The background you've created on the tag is delicious, and the layers of varied textures on top are incredibly tactile - I want to reach out and touch it. Lovely work.

  24. So gorgeous. I love the way you've used the leather in an embossing folder. You get so much texture and layers on one small tag! The background is totally yummy - I have to say I love the pink!! Can I ask what it is you use for the 'ring' on your tag? It looks fab. (I'm not good with eyelets if that's what it is!)

  31. I think that what you composed was actually very reasonable.
    However, what about this? what if you were to write
    a killer headline? I am not suggesting your information isn't good, however what if you added a headline that makes people want more? I mean "LAYERED HEARTS" is kinda plain. You ought to look at Yahoo's front
    page and see how they write post titles to grab people to
    open the links. You might add a related video or a picture or two to grab readers
    interested about what you've written. Just my opinion, it might make your posts a little livelier.
