Nothing Fancy

Happy Saturday, dear crafty friends!

I'm working on a project for the new case file reveal at CSI, and while working on it, I took a little break to make this tag for two challenges.

The first is the mini challenge at More Than Words, which asked to use the word "Fancy":

The 2nd is a stunning moodboard at Scrap Matrix - this color combo of purple and teal is simply gorgeous!

My friend, Helen Wallace, encouraged me to join, so here it is...

Lately I love making flat embellishments by stamping in verious colors and/or coloring it with Lindy's sprays.

This time the stamping is in layers, and it's my new LOVE!

I've used Ranger's archival inks in shades of purple (for the flowers) and different shades of teal (for the leaves). 

As for the big flower, after stamping it, I stamped the upper layer once again, this time with embossing clear ink, and heat embossed it once with Lindy's Desert Moon Turquoise ep, and then with Purely White ep. I really love the way it turned up!

The bigger tag was colored with different shades of purple and teal: Hi Maintenance Magenta shimmer spray, Magnolia Magenta Gold shaker, Pop Rock Purple flat fabio spray, Guten Tag Teal shaker, Tainted Love Teal shimmer spray, Magnolia Magenta Gold shimmer spray.

I built the layers, using the stamped flowers and leaves, and adding some die-cut I've already had from previous projects.

In 3 weeks it will be Passover, and I alreay have at least one tag for the holiday...

Thank you for visiting my blog. Your comments are much appreciated!
