March Tag by Jennifer

Hello! Jennifer here today to share my March tag along with steps on my technique!  I started with a chipboard tag from the Chipboard Tag Album and painted the front with Distress Paint.

Once my tag was dry, I used the new 5×9 Grass Butterfly Layering Stencil.  First, using metallic texture paste and the grass portion of the stencil, I lightly applied my paste to the bottom portion of the tag.

It is best to clean off whatever medium you use on your layering stencil right away; water and a paper towel usually does the trick!  Next, ensuring my stencil was dry, I applied modeling paste to the butterflies. Confession, I used acrylic paint first but I didn't like how it turned out! LOL So, I covered it up with my modeling paste.

Before lifting my stencil, I sprinkled some Stickles Dry Glitter to the modeling paste to give the butterflies some extra shine!

Once dry, I was ready to embellish my tag with paper and die cuts!
