Florals on a textured background

Hi friends! We had a lovely day today walking around without a particular goal in town. Sometimes that is when you discover the best treasures. I have a floral tag to share today.

I really like Tim Holtz Woven 3-Dembossing folder and wanted to use it for a textured, but still neutral background to some funky florals from Tim's Sizzix Artsy Stems. You can of course use a different embossing folder and different flower dies instead.

Start by inking the Woven embossing folder with Distress Ink in light shades. Mist a heavystock tag with water and emboss. I love how these new embossing folders embosses an entire tag.

When the paper is dry, ink with both light and dark shades.

I also splattered the tag with a little Ground Espresso.

Die cut the Artsy Stems from heavystock paper.

Ink the flowers with pink, red and green Distress Inks.

Stamp the lighter flowers with Simon Says Stamp Halftone Circle Background and Distress Oxide ink, for a hint of texture.

I like the way the oxide ink looks on top of the Distress Ink. The sentiments come from Tim's Clippings Stickers.

I love the fun shapes of these florals.

The shades of pink and red look nice against the more neutral background.

Die cut Tim's Crochet borders from a piece of Backdops paper and add Memoir Ephemera. The ticket was stamped with Simon Says Stamp Mixed Labels and the sentiment comes from Anna's Flowers.
