Celebrate Mixed Media Tag with Karen Jiles

Hi there,

It’s Karen sharing a Celebrate Mixed Media Tag that I created with the Star Stencil and Corrugated Stars. I loved these products together. The Star stencil is a versatile stencil to use for various occasions and the corrugated stars added great texture. Take a look at how this tag came together in the tutorial below.

Step 1: Lay Star Stencil on top of manila tag. Transfer Star Stencil pattern onto tag using a foam tool and distress Ink.

Step 2: Using E6000, adhere ribbon to the back of each side of the manila tag.

Step 3: Adhere large star charm to tag and adhere corrugated star on top of the star charm.

Step 4: Adhere flowers, leaves, additional star charms and corrugated stars.

Step 5: Add sentiment, hemp, bow, crystal gems and pin.

Step 6: Tap on gesso using paint brush to enhance the overall design.

Step 7: Continue embellishing as desired.
