Lime, Brown, Shoes, and Purses make me "distress"!

I made this tag with three challenges in mind...The July 2015 Dylusions Facebook Challenge, Club Scrap's July 2015 Tool Challenge, and Tiare Smith Designs Embrace Your Art 365 Challenge. Whew! So, here's my girl...shoes, purse, lime, brown and distressed!

I sprayed the tag with Dylusions fresh lime ink and then placed the Club Scrap Vogue stencil on top and misted with Stewart Superior Amaretto mist.  I used a combination of Dylusions and Club Scrap stamps to put my fashionista together like a paper doll! I painted her outfit with Dylusions funky fuschia and fresh lime inks and stamped the pattern on her dress with a stamp from Club Scrap's newest kit Cantina. I stamped the purse with an oldie but goodie stamp from Club Scrap's Steppin' Out kit with their fuschia ink. I added a coat of Glossy Accents to make it look like patent leather. I typed the quote in Photoshop and printed on Club Scrap card stock. 

Jellyka St. Andrew Queen's font 

"There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age."

July NBUS Challenge

 Per Pam at Club Scrap..."What’s NBUS, you ask? NBUS=Never Before Used Stuff. This month's challenge is to create a page, card, ATC series, tag, or whatever using a SUMMER stamp you’ve never used from your stash (anything that says summer to you – quotes or objects from Summer PSL, Cantina, something that looks like a sun, flipflops, beaches, Cape Cod, bees, dragonflies, Castaway, water, etc)." So this SCREAMS summer to me!

The wave stamp is from the Club Scrap 2015 Reunion kit. The margarita glass is part of the stencil from this month's Club Scrap Cantina kit. The bathing beauty and sentiment are Dylusions stamps. Oh, and the background stencil is from the Club Scrap Artifacts kit. All card stock is from Club Scrap. 

The bathing beauty was too big to stamp on a card, so I made a giant 6*10 inch tag. I want to party with HER! Dont' you?!

I also entered her in the Embrace Your Art Daily Challenge hosted by Tiare Smith Designs. Be sure to check out the Club Scrap challenge board and the Tiare's prompts and the make something!
