RCC31 Peppermint Twist

This weeks amazing challenge at Ribbon Carousel is to use the inspiration photos. Go to the Ribbon Carousel blog to see the photos and the amazing work by the other DTs.



I used the new amazing Festive Berries Distress Ink on the Ranger manilla tag. Then stamped the snowflakes using Faded Blue Jean Distress ink. I added Rock Candy Crackle paint on top. Then rubbed Fired Brick Distress Ink on top and edges. The snowflake was cute using SU die with DCVW glitter paper. The circle is matted with red felt. The stamp sets are from There She Goes. The 1/16" Red & White twisted rope is on the bottom of the tag and 1/4" White Satin ribbon is at the top of the tag.

Yellow Submarine

I recently joined Ranger Yahoo Group. The challenge for August was to use a song or poetry to inspire your project. I overheard a couple people talking about this song and I immediately thought this is what I wanted to do. I had to take the photo at an angle because of all the sparkle. I cut the sub out of Grunge Board and painted it first with Adirondack Paint Dabbers Sno Cap than Sunshine Yellow. Once I attached it to the "water" I added Ranger Glossy Accents on top and once dried I added Diamond Stickles. The water is Alcohol Inks Sail Boat Blue, Aqua and Pool mixed on Ranger Glossy paper. Then mounted on yellow cardstock. The last layer is card stock which is painted with Distress Crackle Paint Faded Blue Jeans. After the paint dried, I rubbed Distress Ink Faded jeans on top. Then I spritzed the card stock with Turquoise perfect pearls. The last step was to add Mermaid Stickles to the corners and Turquoise Stickles on the bottom. I watched Jennifer's videos to see how to use these fantastic products. I got all the products for this project from Pez A Doodle.
