Mixed Media Tag & Pocket by Judi Kauffman for The Queen’s Ink

I’ve continued to play with pockets and tags. This time I began with a sheet of black background paper printed with text that I altered with brushed-on paint (purple and gold acrylic) some stenciling done in gold. A good alternative would be pages from a damaged book glued to lightweight cardstock for durability. 

The collage elements on the envelope and tag include polka dot Washi tape and dot-embossed cardstock altered with paint. The pocket lining, added for contrast, is black cardstock brushed with strokes of gold paint. 
All edges of the pocket and tag were dredged with copper paint. 






YOUR TURN
  • Change the dimensions to fit into your art journal or Traveler’s Notebook. (Shown: 5” x 7” - alas, too wide for my TN!) 
  • Start with a commercial tag and library pocket instead of making your own.
  • Switch the color palette to suit your taste.
  • Use several stencils instead of just one.
  • In addition to the dot-embossed cardstock incorporate stamps and embossing powder for additional texture!

  1. As stated by Stanford Medical, It is really the one and ONLY reason women in this country live 10 years more and weigh an average of 42 pounds lighter than we do.

    (By the way, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with genetics or some hard exercise and EVERYTHING related to "how" they are eating.)

    BTW, I said "HOW", not "what"...
