Love your tag! You could dye the twine for a darker color with a dark ink, and possibly split the same twine to place on the charm. Very nice and I enjoyed your thought processes as you made the tag. TFS
A wonderful way to spend 45 minutes. ..envisioning a beautiful piece with you and observing your process of creating it your way. ...I love what I see with a "new eye," a new perspective.....enjoyable, interesting, and encouraging....you never fail to make me smile and I thank you for that.
I love your tag and what a lot of great ideas 👏👏👏😀...i often see a lot of beautiful things on Pinterest but there are SO many ideas so I get totally crazy 😝 Hugs and thanks for sharing Tina 👩🏻🎨💜
You can cut of the corners of an old giftcard at different angles and use it as a template for cutting the corners of tags. Find it way easier than holding the cut corners. Did you try to color your texture paste before using it on a project? 🙂
You make a great detective! That was so fun watching you analyze and then see what you had that would give a similar feel. Would love to see more of this from you! I personally can't go on Pinterest very often. Too many rabbit holes, and I end up watching cats play the piano, unlikely animal best friends, or something else that's so far from where I started that I can't even remember what I was looking for in the first place. As an aside, I was yelling at you, "But Barbara, you *DO* have a date stamp! Your vintage roller one from YCS box!" Next time I'll yell louder 😉
Yes please for more in a series ! I love how you analyzed the original but took and made it your own and found ways to use things that you have to make it all come together! Beautiful Barbara... love you too! 😘😘
I loved watching you create this tag! It was different but similar in a lot of ways. Your style always shines through! I would like to see you do this again. As a matter of fact I will be watching this video over again. Your work is amazing! Hugs💕
I love your videos, your calming voice and your sense of humor! You are a great artist, but you are light hearted/humble about it unlike some that think too highly of themselves :) Coming to the tag, I absolutely loved your inspiration tag as well as your version of it. If I may...the original tag in Pinterest is 6.25" x 3.125" (size 8 from Ranger). One can cut that manually from a Manila file folder imho. As far as the background goes, it's TH distress inks blended and water flicked using the mini spray bottle by Inkessentials (or easily using fingers). It gives those water droplets that dry permanently. Sorry, I am not pretending to know it all but I have done these exact backgrounds by following the videos on TH website/youtube channel. Those black nut like items, it can be made using paper clay and then painted black/gray etc. I've made molds out of real nuts/bolts/cogs and other items from the tool box. Pressed air dry clay in the molds for steampunk style projects. I hope you don't mind my long comment. Keep inspiring me! Loving all your projects as new subbie.
Thank you for your kind words and analysis of the original tag. In my opinion it doesn’t really matter what size the tag is and it also actually doesn’t matter what was used, but rather this was about being inspired and finding creative ways to come up with a similar look and using what you have 😃.
you could probably use puffy paint ( something like the liquid pearls line) to make faux brads and colour them with your fav gilding wax. probably cheaper and less bulk and weight for journal ephemera !
Hello my best friend😊 I'm extremely inspired by you☺.You made a magnificent tag. Mixed media is always innovative🤩 l would love to see a series!!💙 Pinterest is indeed very helpful and so are you💙😊.
A gorgeous tag, i love its...story. And, yes, a series of lost and found inspiration would be very much appreciated. And a little thank you for your inspiration, other kind, from long time ago, when one of the prompts in your journal referred to health - when i decided to improve my health in small steps. So i quit smoking (almost 2 months) and everything is changed. I said a small thank you because is here, just written, but is actually a huge one, from my heart! Much love!🤗💞💞💞🤗
I loved this! I am always collecting Pinterest ideas, but don't have the same stuff they used. You are so correct, that a lot of us have so many supplies already, that we should use what we have and not buy more.
I loved to watch you making this tag because you used what you had and that’s always inspiring I think. Yes I would like to see more of this maybe also one with only cheaper sort of Action materials? Big hugs 😘 Maia
Liebe Barbara, jetzt bin ich endlich dazu gekommen dein Video anzusehen und obwohl es schon sehr spät ist, war ich von jeder Minute gefesselt. Das hast du richtig toll gemacht und das war sicherlich nicht so einfach. Ich habe wieder einiges dazu lernen dürfen, vielen Dank dafür. Viele liebe Grüße Susanne 🤗
I liked your video today. You did a great job in using the original tag and then making one like it. I would be interested in seeing more videos like this one.
More greatness! Thank you for the reminder to use what you have. I never need to go any further than your channel for inspiration! Thanks again and again.
This is super sweetie 🥰 back when I did digital scrapbooking we called this a scrap lift 😁 and is so great for days without inspiration and for learning new things along the way. 🥰 thank you for inspiring us. Big hug 💕 oh and YES please do more of these
Hi Sweety, love your 🏷 😍😍😍 Often I feel ‘au contraire‘ because I have so many ideas that I can't get it all or sometimes I feel overwhelmed...it is what it is and I do my best 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 Now I'm still doing a project that I have planted ( in my head ) some month ago...to make pockets with tags for all the old lady's in my community because I'm volunteers and it's so beautiful to make the lady's, who were alone or sick, smile 😀😍😀😍 I made 11 and now I will go on to make finally 30 or more 🙈🙈🙈 Hugs my dear 🥰🥰🥰
Barbara, turn out fabulous. Some of the things from her picture looks 3D. I'm wondering if those four blocks of letters and what have you. You did a fabulous job
Thank you so much Barbara, I really really love ❤️ your version, it’s equally awesome and stunning and gorgeous too. I really really love ❤️ that butterfly 🦋, and the way you coloured it, made it extra special. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Beautiful! I love everything Tim Holtz, too! Every quarter, I receive the Somerset Studio magazine and I make at less one project similar to one in magazine. There is always something to learn in these makes and what I learn is used in other makes.
Great idea for when you're a bit stuck for what to do... My nemesis are tags for some reason... I just struggle to be inspired... So would love to see you do more! Love the layers on this tag, fabulous! 😁😁💖🌼
Love your tag!!! Your explanation on how you think the original tag is build up is very helpful and now by this video I can make one. I would love a series and will look in to Tina's as well. We can never have to much inspiration haha.
Love the tag great idea to get inspiration from pinterest. I think the lady may have used distressed ink and water only it looks like the effect I get. Thanks for another great video.💕😒😊
I made texture paste using a similar recipe and absolutely love it. And the baby powder makes it smell good too. Mine is YEARS old and I checked it recently and it had gotten too hard to use properly so I added a small amount of water and stirred, stirred, stirred. I was able to bring it back good as new! FYI. I love all your videos Barbara and wait anxiously for them. You are so inspirational. 😘❤️
I L❤VE seeing your process! When I have glossy pieces like the O stickers, I use fine sandpaper gently to make them matte. It makes the ink or watercolor look great.
This was great Barbara! Loved seeing how you analyzed what the other artist did and used the inspiration and what you had on hand to make your own interpretation! I know you are busy but I recommend watching some Tim Holtz videos on Facebook's. He teaches a lot about his inks as and how to achieve the best effects with them.
Love how you use an inspiration and made it your own. No one can really replicate this type of artistry but you came very close but true to yourself. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful gift of creativity with what you have and not what you need to buy. Watching I see products on display that are beautiful but wouldn’t use them again. I love repurposed items especially in my journals. A little paint a little imagination and some patience and amazing it is. Thank you for sharing
Hi B. that was truly academic: "The Analysis of a Tag, 101 - training your eyes to detail". Why did you say you don't have a date stamp? You have the one from the October "Your creative studio" kit. It is not exactly the same but fairly similar. And just when I thought "she didn't hear me saying, use the wax on the brads, use the wax on the key", you used the wax on the brads and the key. That my friend is called "international relations", hahahahahahahh. Can't wait for the next video.
Love how you made this yours. Also love that you kept the mistake in to show what not to do. The butterfly is beautiful. You also point out many times that measurements someone else used isn’t necessary. Great job. Thanks for sharing.
Yes I would like to see more of these kinds of videos. Love your channel.
Thanks Ruth! You can find a few of these on my channel! ☺️
Turned out great. And yahoo! I’m almost out of texture paste….heading to the video you linked below…thank you so much 😊
Love how you repurposed the jewelery box for craft supplies! You did a great job with the tag, I want to try it as well.
Love your tag! You could dye the twine for a darker color with a dark ink, and possibly split the same twine to place on the charm. Very nice and I enjoyed your thought processes as you made the tag. TFS

Thanks so much! Your comment about the Pinterest rabbit hole really made me laugh! 😂 Yes, please louder next time! 😃😂
@@49dragonflies 😊
Thank you Barbara. I loved this video. Loved the idea and the tag you made. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to seeing more :)
I so enjoy watching you diagnose a project and showing us alternative idea Thank you.
Oh yes! A series would be great. I like watching how changing something in little ways, it becomes your own beautiful style.
Great process. How to take someone else's idea and put your own spin on it. I love this!
You did a wonderful job on YOUR tag. My problem is if I go to all that trouble making a beautiful tag like yours I want to keep it, ha ha ha.
Thanks Ida! Nothing wrong with hoarding your beautiful tags! Put them in a journal! ☺️
Yes! Make a series....it’s good to see the substitutions you make when you don’t have something that was used on the inspiration piece.
Ooh! I love your treasure box!! What an awesome idea to use your jewelry box! 🥰
Yes please for more in a series ! I love how you analyzed the original but took and made it your own and found ways to use things that you have to make it all come together! Beautiful Barbara... love you too! 😘😘
This was great fun to watch. Definitely do this again. You ended up with a beautiful tag.
Love the tag idea. Thanks. Yes, I would love a tag series. 😻

You did a wonderful job! I love dragonflies and butterflies so I will make both! Thank you for sharing this! I'm excited to get started! 💜💙🧡💛💚💖
Thanks and have fun! 😃❤️

I love your butterfly tag! See more like this please! Tyfs

It turned out just beautifully! Would love to see another of this type of video!

I've decided to try this with a honey bee theme, using yellow, orange, & gold colors!
Sounds great! :)

Hi Sweety, love your 🏷 😍😍😍
Often I feel ‘au contraire‘ because I have so many ideas that I can't get it all or sometimes I feel overwhelmed...it is what it is and I do my best 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Now I'm still doing a project that I have planted ( in my head ) some month ago...to make pockets with tags for all the old lady's in my community because
I'm volunteers and it's so beautiful to make the lady's, who were alone or sick, smile 😀😍😀😍
I made 11 and now I will go on to make finally 30 or more 🙈🙈🙈
Hugs my dear 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks sweetie! Oh what an amazing project!!! You are so sweet! I hope you enjoy making the rest! ❤️

Barbara, turn out fabulous. Some of the things from her picture looks 3D. I'm wondering if those four blocks of letters and what have you. You did a fabulous job
Stunning Barbara. I love how you looked from the bases up, where I would look from the top - down.
Thanks! I think both ways would work! 😃
Thank you so much Barbara, I really really love ❤️ your version, it’s equally awesome and stunning and gorgeous too. I really really love ❤️ that butterfly 🦋, and the way you coloured it, made it extra special. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
I absolutely love this tag. Its beautiful on its own.
I would love you do more like this. How funny is it that I just bought a stamp set yesterday with the perfect size dragonfly
Thanks Jousie, you can find a playlist on my channel! 😃

I would definitely love to see you do more mixed media Barbara. Lovely tag!
Yes!!! I’d love seeing more of these! Your “decifering” is amazing and helps me figuring out how things are made/layered!
Your tag is beautiful. Lots of beautiful details!
Love this, please keep doing this kind of inspiration !🇺🇸❤️🌵
Beautiful version Barbara, I love Pinterest but find I can get very sucked in and not have time to create lol, but it’s a valuable resource xxx💕
Barbara, this is amazing and so beautiful! Thank you for sharing 💜💜💜✌️✌️ Sherry
I L❤VE seeing your process!
When I have glossy pieces like the O stickers, I use fine sandpaper gently to make them matte. It makes the ink or watercolor look great.
Yeeeeees, series please!!!!
Your tag is beautiful. I love the idea of inspiring from another project. Would love to see more.
This was super fun to watch. Yes, it would be fun to see more.

Thanks Pat! I have watched some of those, but need to watch more. They are just sooooo long hahaha.
I've never used texture past or stensils. Its time that I gave it a try
Heck yeah! Please do choose other inspiration images (products) and go to town! We will still watch Tina's clips too!
Super fun project 😍😍😍 like to get my inks and oxides out and play along 😁🥰
Love your creation! Thanks for this inspiring video and please make more
This was fun to see you figure this out, would love to see more like this.
Loved this. Love butterflies and dragonflies too so this is something I'll definitely try.
Wonderful interpretation of a delightful tag. Thankyou. Sending hugs from New Zealand
