Tutorial; Watercolouring and Spritzing

I'm supposed to be working on a BIG crafty project.  But I wanted to play with my new TH Spritzer and Distress Markers...oh and the new Nature Walk stamp set.  This is another project using my "Ready" made backgrounds I mentioned in yesterday's POST.  When I have extra project I grab a tag or card stock and soak it up.  Then it goes in this box of "READY" paper for quick cards or tags.   This is a girly tag!  Are you shocked...GIRLY!   There's my tag, inked and ready!   
It's my first time using the new nature walk stamp set.  I have all of these in the bigger sets.  So, I like having the mini too.  Makes my crafting more versatile!  And I have issues!


I am a LUCKY CRAFTER!  I picked these Distress Markers up 2nd hand and brand new last week! 

  I used shabby shutters for the lady.  I'm not going for a witch look here.  Just subtle.

  I used tattered rose for her eyes.  It's my first time using these markers so I'm going soft.
  I inked vintage photo and watercoloured it too.

  My tag was done but I added some ink and a stencil.

  There's my new distress marker spritzer I picked up at The Scrap Yard yesterday.  I am so excited, this has been high on my must have list!

  I spritzed the peeled paint distress marker and it's a subtle layer.

  I cut the lady and added some fringe klassine.

  This is all about the scraps from the watercolour paper, klassine, tag and this small piece of tinsel.  It's my last piece. {sad face}

  I stamped the flowery stamp then more distress markers to colour in some of the bits.

  I love the Fig. stamp so I stamped onto my crinkle ribbon.

  I added the new life quotes remnant rubs to the bottom and distressed.

  A little paint for some idea-ology!  Loving all the new distress paint colours.

  Dabbing with your finger gives a random look.


Apply some heat until it just starts to dry then rub off the paint.
  VOILA!  I think it's unlike any tag I've ever made.

  I had no idea what I wanted to do but I love it!


The added paint and rubbing it off really creates this great patina look for the clock and pen nib.
  I rolled the paper to give it a scrolled warn look.  Then attached some film ribbon.

    Scrunching the klassine and showing off the floral stamp behind adds layers and a classic vintage feel.  Almost a crown?

  Using more of the nature walk stamp I layered the sparrow, feather and that awesome Fig. stamp.

  I popped her up on dimensionals so she's floating on the tag!  
I am so pleased...are you?  This would for sure be a first for me...feminine tag!  Feminine isn't something I usually craft.  But I am digging her.   I added a few challenge elements to challenge myself.    Frilly and Funky Challenge; Time after Time "clock" Simon Says Stamps Monday Challenge; Transparent "film strip"   Thanks for checking out this girly tag!  As always I thoroughly enjoy your sweet comments!  So thank you for always for stopping by and taking the time.
