Tag Friday for AVJ

It's Tag Friday over at A Vintage Journey where we have a fifth Friday in the month and fill it with tags of our choosing. No themes, no constraints just free time to play and experiment with whatever we choose.

At the last Ministry of Mixology I did a 'Make and Take' using a media board that Di at Tando Creative cut for me and this tag started it's life there. I didn't get any further than the first few layers of the background and so I have cut it down into a tag to use as a base for today's Tag Friday sample. You can see the M&T design on my blog post here.


Having stamped with Andy's Tech Traumer set onto greaseproof paper, I adhered it to the greyboard, added some tissue tape and then a random watery wash of cerulean blue and prussian blue.


Texture white gesso using the flat of a palette knife.
Add some black gesso stencilling.
Spray Amsterdam acrylics - burnt umber and greyish blue.

Collect collage elements together.



Distress numbers (they come in the kit), distress central label (see below), paint chipboard pieces with black acrylic and assemble the dial.


Adhere pieces onto the tag and distress the edges to finish.


I hope you can pop over to see the fabulous designs from the Creative Guides and go visit their blogs too.


Thanks for stopping by.

Enjoy your designing and creating.
