Autumn Tag


 Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm sharing with you my Autumn Tag. I combined a variety of Quietfire Design Stamps and Modern Gilding Powders which were all perfect for creating this tag. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage and learn how to recreate my Autumn Tag at home.

To start, trim a 3 1/8" tag down to 5". Spritz water on the tag.Spritz Carved Pumpkin, Rustic Wilderness and Candied Apple Distress Spray Stain on the tag. Dab off the excess spray with a paper towel.


Apply Jet Black Archival Ink to the Grid Background and stamp onto the tag as desired. You'll need to stamp the grid background a total of seven times. Reapply ink as needed. Distress the edges of the tag. Ink the edges of the tag using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


Die cut a 2 1/4" Stitched Circle out of a piece of kraft cardstock. Apply Emboss It Ink to the Autumn the years stamp from the Autumn Collection Stamp Set and stamp onto the circle. Sprinkle Copper Scroll Modern Gilding Powders over the stamped sentiment. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Ink the edges of the circle using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


From the Leaves Stamp Set, you'll need four of the leaves. Apply Potting Soil Archival Ink to three of the leaves and stamp onto a piece of watercolour cardstock. Apply Potting Soil Archival Ink to the remaining leaf stamp and stamp once onto a piece of watercolour cardstock. Using a waterbrush and a watercolour palette, colour the leaves as desired. Once the leaves have dried, fussy cut eight leaves out. Ink the edges of all the leaves using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


Foam square the circle 5/8" from the left and 1 1/4"from the bottom of the tag.


Adhere the leaves around the left hand side of the circle as desired.


To finish the tag, tie a piece of twine through the top of the tag.


Here are a few closeups of the finish tag.




Here is the finished Autumn Tag.

Eat, Drink & Be Merry Wall Hanging

 


Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm sharing with you my Eat, Drink & Be Merry Wall Hanging, which can easily be turned into a card. I combined a variety of A Way With Words Dies and Modern Gilding Powders which were all perfect for creating this wall hanging. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage and learn how to recreate my Eat, Drink & Be Merry Wall Hanging at home.

To start, choose two pieces of coordinating patterned papers. Die cut a 4 1/2" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of one of the patterned papers. Die cut a 4 1/4" Fitted Indented Rectangle out of the other patterned paper. Distress the edges of both pieces. Ink the edges of both pieces using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


Die cut the Flourished Frame out of a piece of white cardstock. Apply Emboss It Ink to the frame. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powders over the entire surface of the frame. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.


Die cut the Eat, Drink & Be Merry words out of a piece of white cardstock.


From the Hearts & Love Collection Stamp Set, you'll need the two outlined hearts. Apply Emboss It Ink to the hearts and stamp onto a piece of white cardstock. Reapply the ink to the stamp two more times and stamp onto the same piece of white cardstock. Sprinkle Copper Scroll Modern Gilding Powders over the stamped hearts. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Fussy cut five of the hearts out.


Foam square the 4 1/4" rectangle to the 4 1/2" rectangle.


Adhere the Flourished Frame to the 4 1/4" rectangle.


Adhere the Eat, Drink & Be Merry words down the 4 1/4" rectangle. I have some of the words sitting on the flourished frame.


Adhere the fussy cut hearts as desired around the words.


To finish the wall hanging, punch two holes at the top of the rectangles. Tie a piece of twine through either hole creating the hanging part.


Here are a few closeups of the finish wall hanging.




Here is the finished Eat, Drink & Be Merry Wall Hanging.
