Kerry <\/a>used papers, laser-cut elements and rub-ons from the 49andMarket Color Swatch Willow <\/a>collection, Tim Holtz Exquisite<\/a> stamp set and Specimen thinlit dies<\/a>, together with Simon Says Stamp Layered Hummingbird<\/a> wafer dies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andrea<\/a> made a teal tag using Tracy Evans’ Quirky Bird Stamp Set<\/a> and Simple Stories’ Color Palette Tags Paper<\/a>. She also used Simple Stories’ Snow Pine Lodge Paper<\/a> and Craft Consortium’s Grunge Light Tones Paper<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a yellow tag, with just a hint of orange. She used Simon Says Stamp Just Because Background stamp <\/a>to white emboss the background. The flowers were die cut with Simon Says Stamp Lily Duo <\/a>and watercolored. The sparkly sentiment comes from Simon Says Stamp Fancy Create die<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> chose black and its shades for her card. Black is the perfect color for Halloween and was mixed with gold to make it even more dramatic. Barbara used Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Layering Stencil Iron Works<\/a> and Ranger Texture Paste Black Opaque<\/a>, Distress Mica Stain Unravelled<\/a> to create the background. She added various details in black and gold cut with Sizzix Gothic Portrait<\/a> and Wicked Thinlits dies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kath<\/a> created 3 art prints to frame and hang in her hallway using the 6″ x 8″ Paper Pad<\/a>, Ephemera Stackers<\/a>, Rub-On Transfers<\/a> and Acetate Assortment<\/a> from 49andMarket Color Swatch Charcoal Collection<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> went totally blue using Tim Holtz Sizzix Feathered Friends<\/a> negative die and Tim Holtz Brushstrokes <\/a>stamp. Then she lost herself into collage making more layers and adding more interest. She mixed Tim Holtz Distress Inks and Oxides: Uncharted Mariner<\/a>, Tumbled Glass<\/a>, Prize Ribbon<\/a>, Broken China<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Maura<\/a> created a plaid card in shades of Lapis. She added Simon Says Stamp’s Scripty Hello die<\/a> and Tim Holtz Sizzix Feathery dies t<\/a>o her card. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Simon Says Stamp Clear Stamp Par-Tea on the background, and colored it with Zig CLEAN COLOR 90 SET Real Brush<\/a> and Copic SKETCH 72 PC SET C Markers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Zoey<\/a> used Distress Crayons in neutral<\/a> for her tag. She also used Entomology<\/a> for her background along with Urban Layers<\/a> and Flashcards<\/a> to decorate it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
