Just a quickie Show & Tell for today... it's been awhile since I signed up for a swap on AFA requiring the work to be HD/HP (hand drawn/hand painted), my focus has been elsewhere on a variety of 3-D projects. I came across the notice for a "Tag Swap" that was starting, it caught my attention immediately and I just couldn't resist! It took me a bit more time to shift gears back to a flat piece of paper than usual, I think my muse went on a holiday... luckily, I managed to track her down and finally found some inspiration to begin!
Below is a photo of my finished tags... I chose to use a solid black tag in hopes of creating a stark contrast to the vibrant colors of the drawings and multi colored ribbons... I am very happy with the end results, I hope you'll agree.
(I just hope that someday I will figure out how to take a photo that does artwork justice!)

ReplyDeleteOK I want them ALL!
ReplyDeleteAwesome colours, how do you mix the dyes? and do you think I could use other dyes, too?
ReplyDeleteThe dyes are liquid so I just use them directly & handle as you would watercolors... I' m sure other dyes could work but I love Jacquards!! TY for taking the time to stop by !!
