Lindy's Technique - Resist Backgrounds - 4 Mixed Media Tags

Hey Gang!

It’s Anat here with an easy tutorial creating a couple of Mixed Media Tags. In this tutorial I will show you 2 resist techniques with Lindy's Stamp Gang. The first Technique is Lindy's Squirts over texture paste – Black and White Backgrounds. The second Technique is Lindy's Sprays over Embossed design – Black and White Backgrounds.

All Tags have a minimal decoration composition - the background do all job of embellishing.

Basic Process

• Cover 2 chipboard tags with Black Gesso and another 2 with White Gesso
• Grab a gorgeous Stencil and Spread Modeling Paste through it .
• After drying, add Squirts to both Tags:
  1th tag -  Loonie Toonie Teal,  Poutine gold, Polite People Purple
  2th tag -  Maple Syrup Bronze, Canadian Bacon Blush
• Stamp the other 2 Tags , using Purely White Embossing Powder, Fabulous Stamp and Versamark Pad
• Add Lindy's Sprays to 2 embossed tags:
  1th tag with: Jazzy Jivin Purple, Ramblin’ Rose Pink
  2th tag with: Cowabunga Copper , Tibetan Poppy Teal

Video tutorial - How to Creat amazing Gems using Lindy's Embossing Powders

Hello dear  friends!

Here with you today to share my first video tutorial for Lindy's - Yay!

the video is a Lindy's technique: How to Creat amazing Gems using Lindy's Embossing Powders

In this tutorial I'm showing how to make the amazing gems I used in the project below, made for Lindy's January Challenge.

Lindy's embossing powders are two-toned powders and that's what gives the gems the unique Chameleon Bright and Shimmering look.

Some of Lindy's EP are transparent so if you use one on top of the other, like I did, you get more tones!

And you still can see underneath. You can see in the next photo the gems not only have the tones atributed by the embossing powder but also reflect the grungy colors of the spray on the project.

This give us the possibility to make a bunch in advance and use the same Gems in different project styles.

What you need is:  a good embossing pad or dabber, some pebbles and at least two of Lindy's Embossing Powders.

Link to process video: 

Lindy’s Products

• Embossing Powders: Ghouly Goblin Green, Twilight Jade Slate, Cosmic Pink Blue, Razzleberry Plum, Cosmic Blue Violet, Desert Moon Turquoise, Reindeer moss Green, Pop Rock Purple and Holly Berry Red Gold

As promissed in the video here's a list of the best EPs for this technique:

• Hibiscus Rose Orange, Stardust Candy Rose, Adobe fire, Desert Moon Copper Teal, Golden Angel Wings, Spanish Moss Green, Spring Leaf Chartreuse, Weeping Willow Green, Madonna Robe Blue Gold, Hollyhock Scarlet Plum, and all the Angel wings serie
