June Colour theme- Fiona Randall

 

Morning all it's colour theme on the blog until the 5th July .

Georgeous colours so I had a play.

I created a tag and the colours were screaming out for a Butterfly LOL.

I used my favourite Tando size 8 tag as my base. gave it a quick coat of DecoArt Media white tinting base. I then used watered down DecoArt Chalky finish in Vintage and Keepsake to create watery washes and splatters. Drying between layers to give a faux watercolur effect. Then some stamping added with black versafine ink. The butterfly was stamped and coloured using the same watery washes as the base tag. This was then attached to the tag base. A quick easy project.

Do stop by the blog next week for a new theme and more inspiration from the DT.

Butterfly Week- Fiona Randall

 

Morning all,

 The theme on the blog this week is 'BUTTERFLIES'

You know that I have a passion for this subject matter so this was a no brainer for me.

I used one of the Tando Size 8 Tags and a Piece of Tando Grey Board cut to size to mount the Tag onto to create a panel. A piece of watercolour cardstock was cut to fit the tag and glued into place.

The tag was stamped with the leaves and embossed in gold embossing powder. This was then Water coloured with Lindy's Magicals and Distress Spray Stains and finally a few splatters added with gold paint. 

The flowers were stamped and gold embossed onto vellum and fussy cut. The Butterfly was stamped and given the same water colour treatment as the leaves on the tag.

The flowers and the butterfly were then added to the tag with off cuts of Grey Board to give depth and dimension. Finally a simple sentiment was added as shown.

The panel was given a coat of DecoArt Chalky Finish and the edged by swiping gold wax.

The Tag was then mounted onto the panel with off cuts of grey board to give depth to finish.

I love how this has turned out and the soft dreamy effect I was going for I think I achieved.

March Colour Theme Week- Fiona Randall

 

Morning all Fiona here with a project and here is the colour theme for this month.

What a wonderful colour pallette for the begining of spring.

So here is what I created using the colour pallette for inspiration.

I used a Tando Media board mounted onto a Tando Tag and added one of the new Bees recently released. I went for a spring feel feel for this project as the colours are so uplifting.

In The Round Week- Fiona Randall

 

 

Morning all Fiona here with this weeks theme- In The Round.

I love circles and use them whenever I can.

 

 

I've used various circles on this tag stamped and given a mystical astrological feel from Tando's Grab Bag of circles. The Tando grey board tag was given a coat of DecoArt Chalky finish in Carbon. Next up some splattering with DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic in silver and stamping to create the night sky. The Circles were then layered up onto the tag using off cuts of grey board to give depth and dimension.I then added  the little Tando Arrows embossed with white embossing powder on top of the moon circle. Of course I had to add a butterfly from my favourite stamp set from Chocolate Baroque. The tag was then mounted onto a grey board panel. To finish a sentiment was then added to the base of the tag.

Do check back to see what the rest of the team have in store for you this week.

June Colour Theme - Tag Book - Fiona Randall

 

 

Morning all.

 I'm here with a Tag Book for the June Colour theme.

 What a fabulous theme of colours and so me.

 

This is the colour theme for June.

 

 

I have made a Tag Book using the fabulous Tando Grey Board Substrates.

 

 

This is the front cover shot.

The Inner covers are further along in the post.

 

 The front and back covers were created using Tando Grey Board Tags size 8. Covered in papers from my stash to tie in with the colour theme. Then a collage of Butterflies and ephemera added to complete with inking around the edges.

 

Now onto the inner pages of the book.

 

 

These were created  from one sheet of 12x12 scrapbook paper.

Using a size 8 tag as a template it was traced around 4 times onto the paper lined up together to create a concertina fold.

 I then placed a template from the A5 Insert Template set on the bottom and traced around.

So once cut out and folded it created the pockets for the tag inserts as shown. 

 

I then traced around a size 6 Grey Board tag onto white cardstock x4 and cut out. These were then decorated with collage elements and papers. The edges inked and string added to finish.

 

Thanks for stopping by today.
