Creative Artiste Mixed Media Challenge Blog #3

Well its hard to believe we are already on our 3rd month of Challenge's over at Creative Artiste Mixed Media Blog. Have you checked it out?  We have a great group of artist's trying to get this blog up and running.  We have monthly challenges, great sponsors and fun prizes, C'mon over and check it out!! (here)

So this month we are using a Bingo Card where you get to choose the line with inspirations for your entry...

It was a lot of fun, so I picked twine/string, black, die cut, monochromatic, and a quote and this is what I came up with...

I decided on making a tag, don't you just love tags, its so great to try new designs and techniques, they also make an awesome album when you put them all together.  I used the light blue as my monochromatic color and adhered to the tag. I also put some Finnabair's black gesso and stencil for the texture along the top. The "heart" die cuts" are one of the designs from our wonderful sponsors, Pam from Pickled Potpourri , which I cut out and heat embossed with black detailed embossing powder.  I'm sure you all recognize Tim Holtz man with umbrella (I cut off the umbrella) and attached the twine from the die cuts through his hand and finally added some Prima flowers and some of Tim's rub-ons. 

I think it turned out pretty cute. I hope you all will join us over at Creative Artiste Challenge Blog and thank you so much for stopping by.  Have a great day, TTFN :)
