Frog Party Tag Tutorial

Hi friends! Today I have a tag to share which was made with Simon Says Stamp brand new Always There release.

Simon Says Stamp Always There.

Always there is a beautiful release, with lots of great sentiments, images, embossing folders, stencils, embellishments and more.

I made a tag with the new Simon Says Stamp Token Terrarium set. The frog stamp is so cute and I created a bunch of them together with lots of leaves and greenery.

Ink tag with Distress Ink.

The background was made with several layers of Distress Ink. I have had it on my desk for a while. It had been used to use up left-over ink and I liked the textures. I thought it would be a good background for the frog scene.

Apply Distress Paint through stencil.

Sponge Picket Fence Distress Paint through the new Simon Says Stamp Dot Petal Pattern stencil.

Stamp images from Simon Says Stamp Token Terrarium.

Stamp the frog, leaves and stones from Simon Says Stamp Token Terrarium on watercolor paper using Jet Black Archival Ink.

Watercolor with Distress Ink.

Smear Distress Inks on a non-stick craft sheet, mist with water and pick up with a paint brush. Watercolor the images.

There are coordinating dies for the Token Terrarium set, but since I don't have them yet, I cut the images out with scissors.

Apply Stickles.

Apply Moon Dust Stickles Glitter Gel with a palette knife through the Dot Petal Pattern stencil.

Add Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Dazzling Gems.

I stamped sentiments from Simon Says Stamp Dot Terrarium, with Blueprint Sketch Archival Ink and cut into strips. Tie coordinating ribbons and fibers to the tag.

Such a fun sentiment! I tucked leaves behind the frogs.

Adhere frogs and leaves.

The frogs and stones were adhered with Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Perfect Foam Tape. I also dyed some cheese cloth with Distress Ink and placed behind the frogs and leaves.

The frogs are all colored a little different from each other. Leave the white paper showing for highlights.


Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Dazzling Surf Gems are glued here and there among the frogs and leaves.
