The Tag Along Challenge this week is 'Faces'.
The base was coloured with Distress stains, a Tim Holtz product that I have been experimenting with recently. Dabs of stain [Antique linen and broken china] on the craft mat, then the tag swiped over a few times till I liked the result.
This base was random stamped, using Stampers Anonymous images. The mindful face was fussy cut and stained with the Antique Linen. I added a few swirls, I think this guy needs to focus and clear his head, there's a a lot going on in there.
I will also pop to over a A Vintage Journey . The current challenge is Stain It.
I was lucky to have been their guest for this theme, I hope they won't mind me sharing this tag.

Beautifully, creatively uncanny! Love the vintage palette.
ReplyDeleteThis would have been a wonderful tag no matter what but including the stamped eye, that was a clever addition.

That's a brilliant tag - I adore the colours (I'm a big Distress Stain lover - glad you're enjoying playing iwth them)... and the images work so well together - a haunting juxtaposition with that eye watching over things. Lovely to have you join us on A Vintage Journey.
