Garden Heart Tag


There were so many fabulous pieces of art work to be seen on Barbara Gray's shows yesterday afternoon.  I'd like to share one of mine which didn't make it to air, but I loved working with the stamps and stencils.

I started by adding a blending mat mop up sheet to a #8 manilla tag. 

I then blended Blaze ink through the Garden Heart stencil, moving the stencil around until the whole of the tag was covered.

Next, I stamped the heart in Terracotta and the verse which comes with it in Dark Garnet Artistry ink. 

The heart background was painted in Blaze ink and a water brush.  I picked out the birds from the stencilled background, drawing around them with a fine liner and painted them in same way.

I love how the stencil complements the stamp set.
