Back to another month's creativity with Creative Artiste Mixed Media challenge - As a gentle reminder to be considered as one of our monthly winners you must use at least 3 different mediums on your project.
I'm sharing another one of my tags from my tag book. I think I may nearly be finished - I have completed 8 tags which is 16 sides and it's all looking quite bulky now - I do have 2 spare tags but I'm not sure whether to add them to the book. Once I'm finished I will show you all the tags complete.
I always add some white Gesso to the base of the tags - even though they are a thick kraft card I need to know it can cope with all the extra mediums I'm going to throw at it.
I added some Paper Artsy paint in Seaglass and then went over it with some Texture Paste and a stencil. I added some stamping from Alison Bomber and Bipasha BK from Aallandcreate in Versafine Pinecone.
I die cut some of Tim Holtz Funky Nature dies and inked them in Ground Espresso. The butterfly is a free paper from Shawn Petite and I added some extra stamping to her wings. I cut her on to some harder cardstock to give her some more strength and added some cheesecloth under her antennae. There are extra papers and stamping underneath and then I used a sentiment from Craft-0-Clock which is just perfect for me as I tend to look back not forward.
I'm adding this into the following:
Paper Rocks Scissors - used everything bar rocks!
Daisy Chain Challenge - not square
Let's Craft and Create - Use a sentiment
Allsorts - from the garden
Tag Along - text added to the butterflies wings and the ribbon beneath

Another beautiful tag! Love how these are shaping up. I totally get how you'd want to add the remaining tags to the book but are constrained by the physical limits of doing so--decisions, decisions, artists lead such hard lives, lol... Regardless of whether they go into the book, I'm looking forward to seeing all of them. Wish you a creative June. Anita xx

Wow! Fiona this is gorgeous. Lots of detailed MM in the background and such soft tones. Pretty butterfly and I do love the use of cheescloth. Always adds that something extra.
