Righteously Confused

Hello.  Welcome.  Found me a new place to play - Canvas Corp Creative Studio.  Their January challenge is called 'Be Lazy'.  Well, count me in!!  I love being lazy.  I even have the t-shirt.  It says 'good at being lazy'.  So lazy and lace.  I can do that.  Actually, the results of being lazy were pretty cool. 


I was pretty sure I had some printed ATC's from 7Gypsys from way back when.  Turns out they were tags.  And I know I have Tattered Angels mists and glazes.  


I took 5 of the tags.  I knew I wanted that pretty blue one as the focal point.  I glued them onto a piece of card.  Usually I would have tried to save the bits that you won't see, but we're being lazy aren't we? so I just glued em down.  


Then I cut them with a stitched rectangle die.  I had originally intended to run the lace in two vertical lines behind the blue tag, but realised my image would cover it on the LHS, so I just added a double row top left and ran a piece along the bottom of the panel.  


I stamped the Rubber Dance 29 again?? and make a wish stamps with brown archival and ran drips of Tattered Angels Gold Glimmer Mist down the card.  They needed a bit of help over the layered tag but very pleased with the drippy runs and the gold shimmer.  Then I added Carmen's Veranda Oz Scarecrow, stamped on kraft card, coloured with Promarkers and fussy cut.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Wow! I don't know about you being lazy because re-purposing five tags into a totally cool new design seems like it required more brain power than I would have! I really like the pattern you made and how this turned out. It's totally original and I always love to see what you're up to with that creative mind of yours. Thank you for sharing your skills with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
