This grungy tag is full of textures thanks to some stamp techniques and sizzix texture fades. To make the background i first used distress inks to create a stunning backdrop for my grungy pieces. I used this ghost stamping technique to create watercolor like areas.
Next i took some grunge board pieces and ran them through my big shot using texture fades. On the heart is the retro circles texture fade and on the wings is the woodgrain texture fade. I love how these simple embossing folders can add so much texture. I used some stickles in the circles to make them pop a bit more. On the winds i used some distress stains and more stickles. I totally love the effect. The big heart needed another layer of color so i grabbed my tattered florals die to make some flowers out of old book text. I inked them up and added the pops of yellow to the center. With a few splatters of paint, a kraft quote and title, this tag is complete.
