Jamie Dougherty Designs: You are exceptionally amazing!

Hello beauties!

Zoey's here for a quick and easy masculine TAG you can make using the brand new amazing Quentin Stamp!! I always wanted a male stamp and this is just perfect!

What I used to create this card is :

From Prima Marketing:

- Bloom Cling Stamp Quentin (#980337)

- 6x6 Stencil Spark (#980399)

- Rub Ons Just Corina (#820978 - Retired)

- Art Basics 3D Matte Gel (#961398)

- Art Basics Heavy Gesso (#961442)

- Art Basics Modeling Paste (#961411)

- Color Bloom Spray (#573881 , #573836, #573805,#573829, #573843, #573799, #573928)

Other:

- Manila paper

- Old page book

- Washi Tape

I started by covering a piace of Manila paper, cut into a TAG shape, with washi tape and some other scrap papers I had lying over my desk.

I also covered the entire surface with strips of old paper book page. To glue the papers down I used the Art Basics 3D Matte Gel then I dried it with the heat gun.

When the TAG was dry I added a wash of Art Basics Heavy Gesso and water to tone down the very yellowish paper, I again dry the TAG with the heat gun.

I used the 6x6 Stencil Spark and Art Basic Modeling Paste to add some texture, this time I let it air dry because I prefer the result. I find that when I let the Modeling Paste dry by air the edge are more sharp.

I used the Art Basics 3D Matte Gel again as a glue -- this time I glued down some gears I had on my stash. I used plenty of the 3D Matte Gel because I wanted to be extremely sure that the gears were not moving once dry.

Then I added a bunch of Bloom Spray, I added them randomly and helped them mixing by adding also a bit of water. I moved the tag around without worrying if there were some drips. I think they add even more texture!

I dried again perfectly the tag and again I added some gesso. I added gesso because I wanted a "light' spot where to add my Quentin! I stamped it using Archival Ink and then with Distress Markers I colored his lovely face.
