That is right, my title says it all. I was chosen to be the Guest Designer at Tammy's Scrapin Corner, I found this blog a few months ago and have really enjoyed playing in the challenges over there. So, I was really pleased to be chosen to to be the Guest Designer for the week. This weeks challenge is Anything Goes.
My project this week is a tag that I made for my scrapbook group. We will be going on our annual retreat in a couple of weeks and I like to commemorate the event. I used a resist technique, I used a text background stamp from Stampabilites and stamped with versamark and then used clear utee to emboss it. Then I went over the whole thing with Tim Holtz distress ink Wild honey. I used the Tim Holtz sewing room die cut and then painted the dress form with a bronze acrylic paint, the tulle and ribbon is from Hobby lobby. the bling is from my stash. I typed the information about the retreat on my computer and the fun in the sun stamp is out of the $1 bin at Michaels. I used glazed pens to color in the fun in the sun stamp. I love the raised effect. It is like it was embossed. I colored the sea horse charm with copic marker #77. The ribbon is from my stash. The tag is 4 1/8 x 8 1/2. I bought them from Ellen Huston online. I really like the size of them. The flowers are Recollections and have been sitting on my shelf since last year. I bought about 8 jars of them when they were clearanced out and I really love them. The corner punches were made with the Corner chompers from We R Memory Keepers I love these because you get to different cuts on each one. This one has art deco and ticket cuts.
This really looks better in person than it does it the photo. But, I do love how it turned out. I will be using mind as the cover page of my beach travel journal for this year. That resist technique is fabulous and I will be using it more. The type of stamp used will determine the results that you get. and the way that you ink the project will also make the looks different. Thanks for stopping by and be sure to go over to Tammy's Scrapin Corner and join in the fun.

Well, the end of another post. Do come again.
Lovely tag - I like all the elements but it sure does feel strange to see 'fun in the sun' applied to the month of October - over here in Scotland there is little chance of fun in the sun :) It's early yet, but have a great time at the retreat, wish I could be there :) Elizabeth xx
