Hello there, today I've got one card to share with you in my recycle with me series over on my YouTube channel. This card's theme is Easter since this weekend is of course Easter. I recently got some new kitchen towels that were Easter themed and there was a cute tag on it. So I wanted it to use it on a Easter project.
I cut down a card base from Micheal's Recollections card stock and then I was ready to create my background. I blended together broken china, cracked pistachio and fossilized amber distress oxide inks. I used the Dollarama make up brush to blend them and add the ink to the card stock background.
At this point I used the advanced tape glider to adhere the recycled tag to the card. I found that foam tape would of been better to adhere this thicker material on the tag. Also it was a very shiny, slick material so the advanced tape glider adhesive had a hard time keeping it stuck down to the paper.
For the sentiment I stamped it in Memento Luxe Tuxedo black ink. I used a Easter banner stamp from Micheal's from a few years back. You could use any Easter stamp you had in your collection. I also stamped the bunny with hippity hop on the inside with the same ink.
Lastly to finish off the card I added Morning Dew Nuvo Crystal drops to the background. I love the look this gave to the card and since the Morning Dew drops dry clear you can still see the colors in the background and it just adds some dimension to the card.
Thanks for hopping by today. I hope you liked this recycle with me card today. I also wanted to share with you that tags like this from products can be great in scrapbooking too.
