Hey friends! I'm popping in with two projects that I made with some newly purchased products from 49 and Market. I will be posting one project to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge (birthday) and the other project will be heading over to the Paper Players (travel) and Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge (tag it). So, let's get to it!
This next project is a tag that I created for the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge and the Paper Players using another new line from 49 and Market called Wanderlust Explorer. What sold me on this collection was the ability to make masculine projects like birthday cards. I used a few Tim Holtz Idea-ology products with this tag. Namely, a #8 thick board tag, a thick board scalloped trim, a window frame base board and crackle paste. I trimmed out some of the patterned paper to fit the tag and adhered it with collage medium. I covered the scalloped trim and part of the window frame with crackle paste and let it dry. Once dry I applied paint in a soft teal and orange wiping some of the paint off. I trimmed down the scalloped piece and then applied collage medium to the trim and window to seal them. Ground Espresso distress crayon was added to all the pieces I picked out, as well as the tag and then I got to layering everything. I used glue and thin foam squares to add my pieces. I finished with the little sentiment that is also from Tim Holtz. I love how it turned out. I was, again, inspired by the super talented Emma Williams who is a member of the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge design team.
Well, that is it for me! Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day.

Wow, so many fabulous elements on each project! Im calling WWCD on your entry at The Paper players, it's cool!
What a gorgeous shabby chic take on travel. Never has a combi van looked so romantic. The doily and dark inking add a vintage twist. You've juggled a lot of elements into a fabulous whole. Thanks for joining in my travel theme at The Paper Players.
