Spring Time Tag Journal

Hello crafty friends, today I am excited to share with you a new adorable Tag Journal tag using the cute HM Garden Set which is an add-on for the Holiday Mansion Set. I will also be using Art Impressions Stitched Tags Die Set.

I stamped the cutesie images from the HM Garden Set on a Bristol Smooth paper using my Memento Tuxedo Black ink and my Mini Misti.

I colored the images with Copic Markers.

Copic shades are:

Reds: R35 R37

Orange: YR07 YR09 Green combo 1: YG23 YG25 Green combo 2: G43 YG67

Yellow: Y17 Y38 Browns: E99 E09 E07 Grey: C2 C4 N6

Beige: E11 E13

I then cut the images and backed the larger images with foam tape.

I cut a grass border using Lawn Fawn Grassy border and the letters for the word "SPRING" from Lawn Fawn Stitched ABC dies.

I colored the grass border with YG23 and YG25 Copic markers and backed it with foam tape.

For the back ground I used blue shades from Distress Inks. Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink, Speckled Egg, Broken China, Peacock feather. Blended then irregularly to create a sky background.

I attached the grass hillside with foam tape to the bottom of the tag then tucked my wheel burrow, watering can and the garden boots between the grass.

I cut the wooden posts of the birdhouses away since I wanted to hang them. I attached them as if they are hanging and drew a couple lines as they are the ropes they are hanging with.

I then decorated the tag with some Stickers, Enamel Dots and Star Stickers and attached my tag to the Tag Journal to my ring is a Metal Ring Set from Amazon.
