Using an 18 cm square piece of multifarious card, and Starting with tumbled glass and makeup brush ink up centre of card in a circular motion.
Using salty ocean ink up from edge of card towards
centre, leaving a light area in the centre.
Once happy with this, repeat process with mermaid
lagoon, leaving both colours showing in the centre.
Repeat twice more using salty ocean followed by
faded jeans, you will have a circular pattern with all four colours showing.
Line up the tree of courage and the tree of hope
stamps on your background, I used a stamping platform so I could stamp both
together using acorn versafine Clair ink.
I then repeated the same process with the foxes, also using acorn ink.
Repeat this process once more with Brodwin using onyx black versamark ink.
Place a piece of torn paper over background, then
ink base of card with faded jeans to ground trees and foxes.
Using a soft lead pencil gently rub pencil on the
area where you want the shadow to be, then Rub with a soft cloth to blend into
the background.
For the next step place a small piece of low tack
tape at base of the trees. Then stamp vine at base of trees using shady lane
versafine Clair ink.

a couple of random areas, allow to dry.
Using a stamping platform, rub card with powder then stamp
larger Lilium flower using versamark, then heat emboss with gold embossing
powder, repeat either side of large flower with the smaller flowers. Stamp a
single Lilium flower on the tag.
Using an acrylic block and versamark ink stamp Magic
surrounds us words stamp, then rub gold mica powder over image with a soft
brush. Leaves a faint shiny effect on the card. Repeat on tag.
Matt and layer the square topper onto black and white card, then frame or mount onto 8 inch greeting card. Cut out desired tag shape then mount onto a larger black tag shape. Punch hole in centre and thread ribbon or string through.
