Hello. Welcome. Whilst rattling through my stamps earlier I spotted this cute little dude with a cupcake and decided to use him on a tag.
I cut the tag from a scrap of yogurt packaging using Stamplorations large Luggage Tag die. I stamped the boy from Panduro's Children set onto the tag with black archival and used Promarkers to colour him. I used a white gel pen for the candle and highlights. Then I went a bit crazy with the glitter glue sprinkles!! I stamped the small clustered hearts using a Rubber Dance stamp and blazing red StazOn, which is not the blazing red I was hoping for but more a crimson pink. Has anyone got a tip for a really red good stamping ink??? I used Poppystamps Love Script Heart and cut a scrap of red card. Then I backed it with a scrap of pink inked paper. I cut round the boy's hat so I could tuck the tip of the heart behind him. Some fancy wool and a red heart brad and done!!
Thanks for dropping by. Hugz

A super cute tag. I like how you tucked the heart behind the hat and the fiber on your tag. Red's are funny, they never seem to look like the color we are wanting. It seems to either come out with an orange hue or it is a darker red than we want. I don't have any suggestions on the ink. If you want it brighter you could stamp it on bright red card stock and paper piece it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute tag and now I suddenly have a craving for cupcakes! So glad you were inspired by our current TAGplorations Challenge over at STAMPlorations. We hope to see you back again soon! Karola, DT, InvisiblePinkCards

Wonderful tag Gail! My tip for a good red ink pad is, aptly enough, called 'Real Red' made by Stampin' Up. I always think it's a perfect shade of red.
