For my project I created a tag. First I stamped the flower image with Versamark and them embossed in gold. I painted the image with some Silk acrylics that was slightly watered down. I then sponged over the entire tag with various Distress Inks in blues, greens and some pink. I spritzed with a little water for some interest and then stamped my sentiment. I then added some modeling paste in areas through a stencil.
When the paste was dry, I went over the raised areas with some gold acrylic paint. I also went around the edges of the tag with the same gold paint and also along the brown cardstock that I mounted the tag to. The water droplets you see come from the Viva Transparent Pearl Pen. I used a decorative corner punch, a couple of adhesive gems and a grommet to finish off the tag.
