(2017 c74) Christmas snowflake Tag
OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
For Today’s tag I got my inspiration from Mandy Stacey’s snowflake tag seen on this post.
As you can see on the picture on the right I started by coloring paper
with Distress Inks by Ranger: Salty Ocean, Picked Raspberry, Faded Jeans and Seedless Preserves. I spattered water on background and re-applied inks several times to achieve the final background, then stamped the snow flakes from A Festive Season by Penny Black with white pigment ink. There is a closeup on right showing the water spatter reactions.
I cut the big snowflakes from Shimmerz cardstock with a retired Martha Steward punch called Alpine Snowflake.
As you can see in the picture on the left I used the negative punched out Simmerz paper & stamped & heat embossed the snowflakes with purple EP.

Your tag is so beautiful. I love the shimmer.
Very pretty! Love the colors!
I love the way water spatters look on distress ink! Such a pretty tag – love the blue and purples hues together.
