Quarantine Quickies #71 & #72: Picture Perfect / Desert Island

These two were probably the quickest tags to come together in my Quarantine Quickies journal.  They also completed my second book ring of pages.  Following the prompts on Mission Inspiration and using Clarity stamps, dies and stencils as always.

Cover a #8 manilla tag with the top layer of a piece of inky paper towel, seal with matte medium, dry and and trim the excess.
Die cut three of the Room with a View Quarterette dies from black card and trim each one close to the edge of the aperture.
Add the ‘pictures’ to the tag.
To finish, add the prompt using a black Posca pen and highlights in white gel pen.
For the next page I started thinking about how people can be just as lonely in a large city as they might be on a desert island and my tag came together from there. Cover a #8 manilla tag with the top layer of a piece of inky paper towel, seal with matte medium, dry and trim the excess.
Add the city from the Ladies Glasses stamp set by Claritystamp in Onyx Black Versafine ink and heat emboss with clear embossing powder.
Add the palm trees from the Summer Shades stamp set either side in the same manner.
Add one of the stamps, Paradise postmark and cancellation lines from the Alphabet Jungle Stamp stamps set and emboss in the same way as before.
Add shading using a Faber-Castell big brush marker, blended out with a Pergamano blending pen and nib.
To finish, add the prompt using a black Posca pen.
