Autumn is the Hush Tag

 

 Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm sharing with you my Autumn is the Hush 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 is the Hush Tag at home.

To start, you'll need a tag that measures 3 1/8" x 6 1/8". Spritz Ruby, Tangelo and Fir Dina Wakley Gloss Spray on the tag. Allow the tag time to dry.

Once the tag has dried, apply Jet Black Archival Ink to the Dotted Harlequin Background stamp and stamp randomly on the tag as desired. I stamped a total of seven times. Reapply ink to the stamp as needed. Distress the edges of the tag. Ink the edges of the tag using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Die cut a 2 1/2" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of a piece of cream cardstock. Apply Emboss It Ink to the Autumn is the Hush quote from the Autumn Collection stamp set and stamp onto the rectangle. Sprinkle Copper Scroll Modern Gilding Powders over the stamped quote. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Distress the edges of the rectangle. Ink the edges of the rectangle using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

From the Leaves stamp set, you'll need three of the leaves. Apply Jet Black Archival Ink to all three stamps and stamp onto a piece of watercolour cardstock. Reapply the ink to two of the leaves and stamp on the same piece of cardstock. Colour the leaves in using a waterbrush and watercolours. Once the leaves have dried, fussy cut them out. Ink the edges of the leaves using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Foam square the rectangle 1" from the bottom and 1/4" from the left of the tag. 

Adhere three of the leaves to the bottom right corner of the rectangle. Adhere the remaining two leaves to the top left corner of the rectangle.

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

Here are a few closeups of the finish tag.

Here is the finished Autumn is the Hush Tag.

Merry Christmas Card

 

 Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm sharing with you my Merry Christmas Card. I combined a variety of A Way With Words Dies and Modern Gilding Powders which were all perfect for creating this card. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage and learn how to recreate my Merry Christmas Card at home.

To start, you'll need a piece of red and green cardstock and the Merry Christmas 3 Die. Die cut the Merry word out of the red cardstock. Die cut the Christmas word out of the green cardstock.

Die cut the Flourished Candle out of a piece of white cardstock. Cut the candle off of the flourish. Apply Emboss It Ink to the flourish and sprinkle Copper Scroll Modern Gilding Powders over the entire surface. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.

Apply Emboss It Ink to a piece of white cardstock. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powders over the entire area of ink. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. From the Peace on Earth Die, you'll need the stars. Die cut the stars twice out of the embossed paper. You'll need a total of seven stars.

Choose two pieces of Christmas patterned paper. From one piece of patterned paper, die cut a 4" Stitched Indented Rectangle out. From the other piece of patterned paper, die cut a 3 3/4" Fitted Indented Rectangle out. Ink the edges of the rectangles using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Foam square the 3 3/4" rectangle to the 4" rectangle.

Adhere the flourish 7/8" from the bottom and 5/8" from the left of the rectangle. Adhere the Merry Christmas word slightly above the flourish.

Use foam squares to adhere the stars as desired around the Merry Christmas word and flourish.

To finish the card, cut a cardbase out of white cardstock that measures 4" x 10 1/2", score at 5 1/4". Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase.

Here are a few closeups of the finish card.

Here is the finished Merry Christmas Card.
