Hello all! I'm very happy to be back with another project here at Artistic Outpost, and I've been playing with the Huck Finn stamp set for the first time. I had a lovely time with this extended tag, and I'm pretty pleased with the end result.
All the stamping was done in Coffee Archival, either on white or kraft card, and I coloured Huck himself using Distress Markers, sometimes with a little water, sometimes not.
The background is tissue wrap, wrinkled onto the tag and inked with various Distress Inks, and I layered the whole thing up with some burlap ribbon. The wonderful sentiment was covering up too much of the background for my liking. I couldn't juggle the elements to fit, so I decided to add a separate panel using eyelets and some twine - now the sentiment has somewhere of its own to live!
The little wooden pegs also got a sweep of Peacock Feathers DI, and the whole thing's topped off with some raffia and natural twine. Thanks for stopping by today... Don't forget that tomorrow is the Artistic Outpost monthly bloghop - hope to see you there!
