Ranger Ink Autumn Tag with Shari
Happy October everyone!!! Can you believe it’s here already? I can’t… my summer has flown by. We are starting to have cooler weather patterns here in the Mid-West and with that comes the arrival of fall colors!
I’ve been absolutely dying to play with some awesome Ranger products and put them together in one project. I’ve created a tag to celebrate the change of season. I LOVE how the Distress Paints resist the Distress inks! It is like magic!!
I could play like this all day…everyday… the hardest part is knowing when to stop! Below, I added some Rock Candy Distress Crackle paint to the Acorn to give it a bit of shine and… well… Distress.
I used a combination of Antique Bronze Distress Paint along with Broken China and Peeled Paint Distress Stains to color the ribbon.
In the photo below, I used some Walnut Stain Distress Stain along with some Ripe Persimmon and Peeled Paint inks that were left on my ink blending tools to color the Seasonal Chitchat stickers.
Next up is the video I shot of the entire process, I’ve had to speed it up to fit in all the steps… Hope you enjoy.
Thanks for hanging out with me today.

I always enjoy your tutorials and always learn something new! Thank you!!!
I love your tag and the great colors you created. I have a question. What do you do with the tags after you make them? Do they just like a card, envelop them and send them to friends? The back seems like it would be messy how do you deal with that?
Thanks for sharing great tutorial.
Hi Tracy!
A quick way to clean up the back of the tag is to add paint. I keep most of my pieces like this and display them in my studio for future inspiration.
Thanks!
Awesome tag; awesome color! WOW
Wow! Love the color, products, and techniques going on with this tag. It’s interesting to see how an artist would layer the paint, stain, and ink pads. Thank you!
I love this tag, and the tutorial is amazing!!!
Love the Blueprint stamps…thank you for the inspirations!
I was mesmerized watching the video! Wow!!

Love, love, love the colors and images on this. Thanks for sharing your process. My problem is deciding when “enough’s enough.” I haven’t mastered that…. {sigh}
Love that acorn. Thanks for a great video.
