Insider Tips - dye your tags using Maya Mists!

Hey everyone! :)

You know how much my Maya Mists? Well, I wanted to show you a new way to dye paper tags : I think you might like it! :)

We're going to make a layout and this is what I used for my layout :

• Anthology collection papers (including Aperture, Bouquet, Periodical)
• Anthology stickers
• Anthology Alpha stickers
• Maya Mist (Amethyst mist & Blue Raspberry mist)
• Kraft sheet
• EK Success label punch

Simply choose a cardstock that is the same color as one of your favorite alphas and glue all the letters, words, sentences you want onto your cardstock (you probably want to cut the cardstock first before adhering all the chipboards, otherwise might be a pain to cut afterwards).


Grab your kraft sheet, 2 tags and 2 small zip lock bags.


Spray Maya Mist in each plastic bag (one color per bag).


Open and put one of the tags inside a plastic bag. Use your finger to make the ink move onto the tag.


Use your heat gun to dry each tag.

Once your tag is dry and ready to use, you can also fold it and put it back into the same color bag.

All the wrinkles will get bolder and darker because of the ink. Use your heat gun to dry again.

You can use your tags the way you want. I like to use them as a new way to focuse on the photos.






Extra item I can't live without and that I used for this layout :

• Martha Stewart craft knife
• my favorite journaling pen
  

Enjoy!

My last post here on the Studio blog....it's always fun taking over for week. I leave you with some very inspiring layouts from the gallery. I love how each person has used there SC stamps in different ways. Like this one from Cassandra West....

See how the numbers stamp from May's kit is peeking out from the strip of paper....the perfect touch.
And this one from Nichoda..

She used the chirp stamp from June's kit to make this nifty tag. Adding the flowers makes it really pop.

I adore what Abigail did with July's postal frame. Check it out......Genius!

Thanks so much for hangin' with me this week! I've had a lot of fun! I hope I was able to return some inspiration to all you awesome SC'rs who have inspired me with the greatness that's posted in the SC gallery on a daily basis.
Take care,
Tina
