*the details: the colors of the stained texture paste, layered metal elements, and distress embossing powder rust makes me so happy!

*the details: i think the resist of the tissue tape and stamped image is a great effect since you can see the designs of both layers.

step 27: stain a piece of crinkle ribbon using distress stain and tie it through the top of the tag. (note to self: this is what i meant when i said that some steps would have been better done before others since embossing the distress powder along this edge began to melt the film strip ribbon)

check out that cool rust texture – love it!!!

step 26: heat emboss the powder until the color begins to darken, let cool, and remove any release crystals from distress powder by wiping over the embossed areas with your fingers.

step 25: this time i want to share another cool way to use distress embossing powder…creating a rust effect!  shake distress embossing powder first, and pour over embossing ink areas.

step 24: using a clean mini blending foam, lightly dab distress embossing ink to various corners and areas of the tag.

step 23: adhere elements to the tag using multi-medium and tie on word band with jute string.

step 22: using your finger, dab and wipe various colors over the embellishments.

step 21: dab various colors of distress paint to craft sheet for a palette to alter any embellishments.

step 20: cut a piece of film strip ribbon and attach the film strip and vial label to the tag by sewing it in random places.

step 19: ink the vial label AFTER the remnant rubs are applied since rubs can’t stick to the resin in distress if you were to ink first.

step 18: apply remnant rubs to vial label with a craft stick.

step 17: cut various words from remnant rubs (i like using these random words to express my creative thoughts).

step 16: remove a vial label from the sheet and scuff the edges using a sanding grip.

step 15: continue adding ink specks to fill in areas of your background and ink the edges of the tag with distress and the mini blending tool.
