Tag It Wednesday - Blue

Hi! Welcome again for the Tag It Wednesday!




For those who are new to my site, I have decided to do a new blog segment called Tag It Wednesday. I will be making tags, of course, every Wednesday with a colour theme. This post will come with photo tutorial or video. Either way, there will be a tutorial and perhaps some tips along the way. I will do this for 5 Wednesdays (this is the 4th week), and I would like you to invite you to join me and share your Tag of the day with me using the link below.

I will pick my favourites and share it next week. If this goes well, I plan to do a giveaway at the end of the 5 weeks.

So, spread the word! Please link back to this page if you join this challenge :) 

Today's theme is the colour : Blue. Hope you like my tag!

As always, I'm sticking to a Mixed Media technique but I wanted to keep it relatively simple.

   First, I'll always prime my tag with a gesso. Then, I misted the tag with my first layer of blue using tattered angels mist and TCW stencil. 

Just to add a little interest to the background, I used a texture paste and went over some tiny dots TCW stencils. 

Using my favourite butterfly stencil, I went over it with the same texture paste and place it to the top of the tag.

Now comes my favourite part, dripping colours :D 

Hope you liked it! And come and upload your Blue tag below :D
