Tag It On #23 - Face to Face


This is not a very good photograph, I am so missing my scanner! Our computer has been out of commission for several weeks now so I cannot scan or print. When I think of all the times I cursed my scanner...

This was a very interesting challenge from Frankie at DragonsDream. The Tag It On challenge is called "Face to Face." We were to use a piece of background paper we had created with alcohol inks and then stamp faces all over it; we could then use markers to colour any parts if we wanted.

My background was done using two colours of blue inks, its a little hard to distinguish in the picture. When I stamped the faces onto it, it was then in the ugly stage...you know that stage that creations go through but usually manage to come out on the other side...hopefully,hee, hee.I then took some old paper distress ink and added some text and crowns and suddenly it had life!

I'm so glad Frankie came up with this, the process was revealing. Hope your challenges are interesting today - cheers!

    This is gorgeous, Rhonda. I love the depth all those faces have got. I have been having a play with this challenge today too. I know exactly what you mean about that stage where you think it's not going to work. I think that's the fun of creating without a complete idea of what you're doing. It's always a surprise what you end up with, well it is with me!
