Thank you to everyone who came out to watch the Ustream live last night. We had a lot of fun creating this beautiful tag.
In this show, I shared with you the technique that I used to create the roses seen in the background of the tag. Isn't this just scrumptious all by itself?
Here you can really see the details in the painted flowers. I decided to decorate the tag with a scene using Prima's Parlor Resin pieces. you can see here how the flowers in the scene match the ones in the background, offering a beautiful 3D effect.
Don't forget to use those scraps when creating floral clusters. This tag project has a few remnants that I found in my stash. A small piece of lace is used as the screen in the window, a small stem from a floral spray, half a piece of metal filigree is just enough to tuck into the edge of my spray, and the butterfly was actually punched from the branding strip of apiece of wood paper packaging.
Adding a little glass glitter mixed with glossy accents, really helps to add sparkle to the shadows, and bridges the gaps between the embellishment cluster elements.
Want to see how I created this beautiful tag from start to finish. Here is the video recordings from last night's show. I was interrupted briefly by a lighting storm, so the show is broken up into two videos.

Thanks for stopping in today,
