Hello Crafters!
Here we are to a brand new challange over Simon Says Stamp!
I took a Manila Tag and covered it with old book pages, Tim Holtz Postale Tissue Wrap and pieces of Washi Tape.
I covered it with a bit of gesso and let it dry. I took a Distress Ink Pad and I smudged it over my Kraft Sheet, added water and let the color soak into my Tag. I let it dry again then with Distress Markers I added some shadows around the sides.
I grabbed a piece of Manila paper and I covered it again with old book pages, tissue wrap and washi tape.
I run the piece of paper through my die cutting machine and I used a sizzix die to cut my three hearts. I added gesso and again with distress markers I added a bit of color. With a black gel pen I added some scribbles around the hearts just to give a bit of interest. My goal for this TAG was not to use stamps — so I had to add interest with scribbles.
I stitched the three hearts together.
I took a piece of acetate sheet and I run it through my die cutting machine and a Tim Holtz Sizzix Die and I cut my wings. I added color to the wings with Alcohol Inks and let it dry. Glued the pieces together and stacked under the hearts.
Before glueing the hearts to the tag, I decided to darkened up the edges of the tag and add some stitches around the border, again to give it a bit of interest and a finished look.
I glued down my center piece and then I adhered stickers by Tim Holtz to create my sentiment.

Cia a tutti!
Eccoci come ogni lunedi con una nuova sfida su Simon Says Stamp!
Ho preso una tag Manila e l’ho ricoperta con pezzi di vecchi libri, Tissue Wrap paper di Tim Holtz e Washi Tape.
L’ho coperta con un poco di gesso e ho lasciato asciugare. Ho preso un distress ink e l’ho schiacciato sopra al Kraft Sheet, ho aggiunto acqua e ho lasciato che il colore impregnasse la mia tag. Ho lasciato nuovamente asciugare e poi con i distress markers ho aggiunto ombre e colori alla tag.
Ho preso un foglio di Manila paper e ho coperto nuovamente la superficie usando vecchi libri, tissue wrap paper, washi tape. Ho aggiunto altro gesso e con i distress marker ho di nuovo creato colore. Ho tagliato i cuori usando una fustella Sizzix e ho aggiunto delle linee intorno ai cuori usando una penna gel. Siccome non ho voluto usare alcun timbro ho dovuto aggiungere interesse alle forme con la penna gel.
Ho cucito i tre cuori insieme.
Ho preso un pezzo di acetato e l’ho passato attraverso la Big Shot usando una fustella di Tim Holtz e ho tagliato le ali.
Per colorare l’acetato ho usato alcuno Alcohol Inks. Ho incollato i pezzi di acetato insieme e poi ho incollato il tutto tra i cuori.
Prima di incollare i cuori alla tag, ho deciso di scurire i bordi della Tag e aggiungere delle cuciture intorno ai bordi, nuovamente cercando di aggiungere interesse e dare alla tag un look finito.
Ho incollato i cuori e poi ho usato degli stickers di Tim Holtz per creare il sentiment della Tag.
