This grungy love tag was created using my new Embroidery Stamps. I scraped off some acrylic paints and white gesso to a big shipping tag with an old gift card to get a weathered look. After the paint dried I stamped with several of the Embroidery Stamp Set stamps with archival ink.
I stamped with the Love Tag Stamp from the Stroll Through the Hood set onto a piece of left over canvas and then fringed the edges and applied it with Gel Medium to the tag.
To enhance the tag a bit further I added some embroidery by using the stamped imagery as a guide and trigger for the different stitches.
I love how the flat stamped embroidery and the dimension of the actual embroidery play together.
Here are the supplies I used for this tag- some links are affiliate links:
Do you incorporate stitching or sewing into your projects?
Have a beautiful day
