Create a festive Mariachi Tag with this month's stamp set and supplies from your stash. I love how the gold embossing sets off the gorgeous guitar embellishment.
Mariachi Tag
Place the guitar image on the lid of a stamping platform. Stamp the guitar in Ash Ink onto a white panel. (Keep the image on the stamping platform.)
Choose alcohol markers in colors to coordinate with papers from the Mariachi collection. Tip: Make note of which markers work with each kit's color palette and keep it as a reference for future creations.
Color the guitar with alcohol markers.
Place the panel back into the stamping platform in the same position as before.
Add India Ink to the stamp...
...and close the lid to stamp on top of the colored artwork. Fussy cut the guitar with scissors and set aside.
Dust a white tag with anti-static powder.
Stamp multiple scroll images on the tag with Watermark Ink, making sure to leave empty space for a sentiment.
Cover the tag in gold embossing powder.
Tap off the excess powder - it should stick to the Watermark inked areas.
Heat set the powder to melt.
Stamp a sentiment with India Ink.
Add tape runner adhesive to the back of the tag.
Adhere the tag to a long Blue panel.
Trim off the excess Blue paper with the trimmer leaving an 1/16" reveal around the perimeter of the tag. Don't forget to punch the hole at the top of the tag!
Punch flowers and die cut foliage from Red, Blue, Gold and Green scraps.
Adhere the guitar with Foam Adhesive Circles. Attach the flowers and foliage with Bookbinding Glue.
Let's take another look at the finished tag.
