A Tag with Poinsettia!

Hello friends, Piyanki here using the Poinsettia from Susan’s Garden to create a water color mixed media Tag!

Shaping poinsettias is what I love. I have made a Red and Pink Poinsettia earlier with a word background.

I used the new Distress Oxide for the background. Keeping a suttle background so that the flower pops.

How to:

1. Cut a chipboard in the tag shape 6.5″ x 3″. Distress the sides and spunge with distress ink.
2. Die cut 2 pieces of Entwined Circles.
3. Die cut 2 sets of Poinsettia flower dies. Color and shade them with distress ink.
4. Shape the flower petals and leaves using Susan’s Metal tool.
5. Cut a piece of Water Color paper in the same size as the chipboard tag.
6. Sprinkle with water to prepare the base and create the background with distress ink.
7. First lay down the die cut circles pieces, add some mesh and prepare for the flower base.
8. Arrange the flowers, leaves and then lay it on the mesh background.
9. Sprinkle some white paint and stones to finish the background.
10. Cut a Black strip of card Stock. Die the word Congratulations with a white paper.
11. Adhere the sentiment at the bottom.

Love to hear from you!

Happy Crafting and see you soon!

Self Challenge 1 + Mudra

Welcome friends to another post where I am intending to start a very interesting series of post for myself and many others like me.

Week Back Erum made a reality check and here's where I picked up my challenge. She is an amazing crafter and you can view all her creations HERE.

So she knocked and said " Can we make some less bulky cards" and oh yes it was a real good knock and I thought its been time I made some single layered card. These are easy to mail and also quick to create.

Along with this I also challenged myself to pick any stamps from my stash and create some cards. 

Challenge Rules

1. Single Layered Card

2. Any 2 Stamps from Stash

3. Weekly Challenge

So for this week I have picked up 2 stamps from Mudra and created 3 cards.

3 cards from 2 stamps is what I have challenged myself.

Do share how you like it and also would love to hear from you.

Untill then happy Crafting!
