It's all Perspective

Hello Friends!

I'm here today sharing a make using one of the new Wafer Dies from Simon Says Stamp. The four new SSS Wafer dies coordinate with Tim Holtz stamp sets and I couldn't be loving that more! It makes cutting the shapes of stamps so very easy! And...I love that they even incorporated the torn edges of the Field Notes stamps. 

I started by stamping the Field Notes images in Archival Ground Espresso on Distress Watercolor Cardstock. Then cut out the images with the new wafer dies. 

I used a Detailer Water Brush and Distress Crayons to color in some of the images and backgrounds. I just scribbled the crayon on my glass Studio mat then picked up the color with a Detailer Water Brush - that was so relaxing just sitting and coloring!

Once the coloring was done, I added the pieces to an Etcetera Tag that had I covered in paper from the new 8x8 Palette Orange pack.

Even though it is had to tell, some of the pieces are raised with Thin Foam Squares, like the Collect piece, the butterfly at the bottom and the red postmark at the top. 

White paint was added to a Large Hinge Clip. It was added to the top of the tag with some inked string and a sentiment from the Small Talk sticker book.

The sentiment at the top goes with the the second one so that it reads, "It's all perspective, everything has beauty".

I used Thin Foam Squares to the add the transparent bird at the bottom. The last thing was to add Cello Tape stickers over a few pieces so it looks taped together. Gosh, I sure love that stuff!

Well that is it for the first project using the new SSS Wafer Dies and Tim Holtz stamps. I'll have a project using another set in the next week or so, so stay tuned for that!

Now carry on,

Paula
