Sharing another tag I made for the Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.
Good Books & Coffee Stamp is from Stamplorations. (I love this stamp set!) 
I stamped sentiment and coffee stack in black archival ink, colored with markers and cut out and adhered to patterned paper. 
And finished by touching up the flowers in a red marker and adding a little bling.

It's Stamptember! Simon Says Stamp It!


It's Stamptember!

I made this tag and was not to happy how it turned out, It definitely needed more work!


 I had embossed with distress embossing powder in shabby shutters. I had not used a distress embossing powder before. I found out it did not want to take color from my red marker, it sort of laid on top. And the stamped words in jet black ink was more gray. So I layered with 3 different red markers to achieve a deeper color and outlined my stamped words and butterfly with a black marker to intensify the stamping. Tag was outlined with shabby shutters distress ink to finish. What do you think...



Better?

The World Needs More Books


The World Needs More Books.


 I papered a # 8 size tag, colored, stenciled and then stamped my books on top of the background letting it show through.  I double stamped the books for a bigger stack omitting the coffee cup that was originally on top. Using distressed crayons to color the books. And outlining them with a black marker.
Finishing by adding a (young college looking) guy from Tim Holtz paper dolls that fit perfectly on top of the stack.
