Smeared Ink tag

After sharing a Smeared Ink card last week, this week I've made a tag using a stamp each from the "Holy City" and "As Death" sets available in the shop here.

I stamped the church image on to watercolour paper using Archival ink and then used Derwent Inktense pencils to add colour before using a water brush over them. I then stamped the quote from the As Death set on to another piece of watercolour paper before adding a colour pencil wash over the top.



Materials used:
watercolour paper, Papermania papers
Smeared Ink stamps (as above), black Archival ink, Derwent Inktense pencils
Prima lace
crinkled silk ribbon, ribbon charm, brooch back, beads, black fineliner pen.


As always, thanks for visiting!
