Don't look back

This is my take on the April tag for the Tim Holtz 12 Tags of 2016 challenge. I am also posting for the Rubberdance colour challenge (blue, purple, pink), the Stampinback challenge (using the word "art") and the SimonSaysStamp Monday challenge (A is for...)


 This flower stamp is from Chocolate Baroque. Since I don't have Distress Markers (yet, actually a tube is on the way) I coloured the background and image with inkpads and a waterbrush. To create a splattered effect I spritzed with Promarkers using the Distress airbrush tool for markers. I don't have a diecut machine either, but I cut the slit and word with a craft knife, embellished tha back of the tag, sewed around the piece and added text with alphabet rubons.


Here is the back of the tag. I have made all the previous ones two-sided too, and since I have used the Rubberdance challenge colours, it was obvious for me that I'd use their stamp for the back. I did some watercolour stamping with this lovely dancing lady. I was a bit nervous how the tag would act as a stamping surface, but it went surprisingly well (and the stamp itself has no detail on the face). I had to colour the back of the piece with the flower so it fit the colours here, and the sentiment is from VivaLasVegaStamp.
