Hey there everyone Stacy here. Ok so who doesn't love Ranger Tim Holtz distress inks???? I totally love this stuff and trying out fun looking things.
Today i'm going to show you how to completely transform your ordinary tag to something fabulous!!! What you will need is some distress inks. On this tag I used dusty concord, peeled paint, and faded jeans. Grab yourblending tool and some blending foam and you will be all set.
So this blending tool is simply fabulous. It allows you to blend the inks so easily and keeps your hands pretty clean at the same time. This tool allows you to add just a touch of ink, or a little heavier in spots if you want.
Step 1: Place your tag on top of some scrap paper to keep your area clean. Start by dabbing your tool with the foam on the end on it onto the ink pad. I just start rubbing the tool in a circular motion on the the tag in a couple of different spots. No need to worry what it looks like because it will all blend together nicely.
Step 2: You want to do this with all of the colors you are going to use on your tag.
Step 3: Now that you have your base colors down...well this is where the blending comes in. Start using a little of your colors here and there on your tag and blend them together. You can do this by just moving the blending tool in circles making sure to mix the colors together on the tag. This will take some time so be patient but you will soon see results. It will give your tag a very pretty look.
Step 4: Embellish your tag. You can add anything and everything you want to your tag. On this tag I just stamped on it when I was finished. You can add bling, flowers , ribbon... the possibilities are endless.
Here is my finished tag.
Ok ladies...hope on over to the AWDML Store and grab all the goodies you need to create one rockin' tag!
Until next time....Happy scrapping.
