Luggage Tags for CVC

Welcome everyone, I am sharing my second DT project for the Country View Challenges July theme of  'on your travels' and I have made two luggage tags.


I began by using the wrinkle free distress technique on two tags using frayed burlap and antique linen DIs. Using black archival ink I stamped various images using Tim's 'documented' set


I made up two small tags and used Artistic Outpost stamps from two or three sets to create these minis to go over the larger backgrounds. I used a water brush and DIs to colour both the images and the backgrounds.


A couple of words to add to the mix.....


 ..... and we have two luggage tags for the journey. 




I hope you can join us at CVC this month - the theme really fits the holiday season in the northern hemisphere.


Have a great weekend and hopefully enjoy some creative time.

hugs Brenda xxx
