2014Using my warm up tags on a page…
A few years ago, I made this video for Nat Kalbach's Creative Jump start:
I always have tons of tags around my desk from my warm-ups. Here's a page I made recently with one of my warm-up tags!
Here's how I made it: I had tons of tags on my desk with prints on them from my new stencils. I took one of the printed tags and drew a scribbly face on it with sumi ink in a Tim Holtz water brush. Then I smeared some Blackberry Violet acrylic ink on my page (the stitching and gesso were already there…I pre-gesso as much as I can, and the stitching is from something I sewed on the reverse side of the page). I then poured some Funky Fuschia Dylusions ink on the page and let it run off. I added the circles with my diet Coke cup (seriously, I did). Then I added journaling and glued on my tag.
