I have limited space for craft supplies and am always looking for ways to get multiple uses out of a single supply. One way to accomplish this, for example, is to keep a stash of white paper flowers in different sizes and color them to match your project.  This way, you don’t have to make room for multiple packages of pre-colored flowers. See how I create a Rose Gold Dragonfly theme gift tag using several of Imagine and Tsukineko inks.

Skill: Beginner
Time: 1 hour

Directions

Step 1

Apply Brilliance Ink to mat, add Shimmer Spray, use to color paper flower. Allow to dry.

Step 2

Repeat step one for multiple flowers.

Step 3

Add dots of clear IrRESISTible Pico Embellisher to flowers. Allow to dry.

Step 4

Apply Brilliance Ink in Pearlescent Coral to the mat, add Shimmer Spray and lay tag down into wet ink.  Allow to dry.

Step 5

Stamp diamond pattern, with Brilliance, to sections of tag.

Step 6

Stamp script onto tag with Delicata Golden Glitz.

Step 7

Edge tag with Brilliance.

Step 8

Stamp Dragonfly image and saying with VersaFine CLAIR in Nocturne.

Step 9

Embellish with dots of Tuxedo Black IrRESISTible Pico Embellisher.

Step 10

Apply Rose Gold Sheer Shimmer Stix to edge of flowers.

Step 11

Embellish tag with ribbon and flowers.
