Hearts Tag

 Hearts Tag 

By Ann 



Romantic or not hearts are always a good idea where mixed media is concerned! 






Dina Wakley Tag (6.25”/ 16cm approx)



Versafine Clair Nocturne 

Gelli Plate, old book pages, ribbon, stapler




Dot some paint across the Gelli Plate, I used Bubblegum Pink & Postbox Red… 


Spread paint across the plate with a brayer starting at one side, blending as much as you want. 
Remember to roll off any excess paint on a spare piece of paper, your journal, tissue paper or a book page… 


Place the Hearts Inkable over the plate… 
 Lay a piece of book paper over the stencil & rub gently to get an impression on your paper… 
Peel back carefully to reveal the image..


 
Continue to create more prints if you wish & leave them to dry… 


Tear strips of paper using one of your prints or you could use
Catalyst Papers. I used a book page I’d used to clean my brayer when printing… 


Tear some hearts from the Media Papers…


 
Glue the strips & hearts onto a tag, using Collage Medium … 


Dry the tag, add the grid stamp with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink, to your tag… 


Using Abandoned Coral Distress Oxide, blend some regular dots through the Dinkable… 


Tear a couple of hearts from your first print, stamp the grid stamp across each one , dry the ink & glue to your tag… 


Add a few splatters with your Scrbbles Sticks or watered down paint.. I used fuschia & black Scribble Sticks… 


Glue a spare piece of the book page print onto a small oblong of card with Collage Medium, dry then stamp a sentiment on to it… 


Staple the sentiment to the tag, add some doodles if you like & finishing with a piece of ribbon… 





Thank you for stopping by… Ann xxx
