For my latest Creative Expressions DT piece I wanted to make a tag with a difference and decided to make two! The first layer is acetate with the typewriter from the really versatile Vintage Typewriter. I stamped it with Jet Black Archival Ink and set it with my heat gun - do be careful that your acetate is heat resistant! The second tag is white card swiped through several different brown Distress Stains. To do this I stamp the stains onto a craft sheet next to each
other and then mist them with water and the smooch the tag right through it - you can do this several times, building up the colour each time. Then, in Old Paper Distress Ink, I stamped 'A note for you' randomly. I then laid the acetate over the the top of the second tag and worked
out where the final sentiment needed to go. I stamped that in Vintage Photo Distress Ink and also edged the tag in Vintage Photo. I made a shrink typewriter and added some of this really wonderful twine. Thank you for stopping by! Gabrielle x
