Icon tag

eye

I made so many mistakes with this tag, for the Sunday challenge No. 41 on ukstampers theme ‘I’ for icon, but I am quite pleased with the results anyway. The coloured eye was made in photoshop (tutorial here)and the ‘eye’ con is the false eyelashes. Wow are they sticky! You can’t really tell from the photograph but there are small flourishes on the ‘C’ stamped in yellow but as the crackle glaze dried the yellowness disappeared into the magenta. I also stamped some diamonds down the right hand side and embossed them in ochre but as the embossing powder melted the colour disappeared. It may be because I have used watercolour paper and it is very absorbent.
Inks: the colours on the watercolour paper are Stamp Zia neon yellow, and Ecoline magenta (diluted), Brilliance sunflower yellow with ochre embossing powder
Card: watercolour card
Stamps: Dovecraft Fantasy emblems flourish, Elusive images Diamond art [you can’t really see the stamping though]
Other: False eyelashes, grunge board letters, wire and beads, Tim Holtz borders mask, Crackle paint on the ‘I’, bottle cap with punched out piece of card, stampin up eyelet, crackle glaze
