Rose and Filmstrip Tag

Hi friends! It is the last day of April and the sun is shining. I have a tutorial to share of a tag with dimensional roses and a bunch of other fun techniques.

I had such fun making this tag! It has a lot of dimension, a textured background, paper roses, plastic elements and lots of other things. The photo of is my grandmother and mother. I used Tim Holtz Sizzix Vault Boutique for many of the elements. You can of course use the techniques for cardmaking too.

Start by applying Texture Paste through Tim's Deco Feather stencil.

Let dry and then paint with watered-down Distress Paint.

Place the stencil back on the design and sponge Uncharted Mariner on the background.

Die cut roses from scrap inky or watercolored papers and from Simon Says Stamp Schoolhouse red cardstock.

Roll them up with a pair of Tim Holtz tweezers. 

Fold out the edges with tweezers. Ink them slightly with brown Distress Ink.

I die cut the frame about five or six times from heavystock paper and glued the pieces together to make a dimensional frame.

Ink with Distress Ink and emboss with several layers of clear embossing powder. Do not touch the melted powder until it has cooled down completely. 

I die cut the filmstrips from Tim's Vault Picture Show set, from Simon Says Stamp Acetate and colored them with alcohol ink. I love this filmstrip die. 

Leaves were die cut from leftover inky papers.

I also die cut the banner from the Boutique set. Tims Tattered Banners Sizzlits die was an old favorite of mine and this banner is such a great size. Stamp a sentiment, fold the banner and adhere with staples.

I also really like the size of the roses and they are very easy to make. 

The filmstrip was twisted and stapled to the tag.

Mirrored Hearts were colored with brown alcohol ink. The sentiment comes from Simon Says Stamp Forest Scenery.

I die cut the doily from the Bouquet set, inked the edges and glued it to the background.

Sizzix Gold Luster Wax was applied here and there around the edges.

I glued some baubles here and there too.

The tag has quite a lot of dimension.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial! See you again soon!

Thank you so much for stopping by here today!
