Hello there and welcome to the start of the Clearly Besotted May 2023 Release Teasers. The new stamps release Monday, 1st May 2023 and from now until then, we will be sharing teasers with you. This release has a fun book/stories/nursery rhyme theme to it. My card and tag today use the Telling Tales Line Up set.

At the top of the image, I added ink blending with brushes. I used Tim Holtz
Mermaid Lagoon and
Prize Ribbon Distress Inks to create the effect of water. The mask was removed and the image coloured using Copic Markers (the colours that I used are listed below the supplies list for reference). The panel was then adhered to a mini slimline card base (6.25" x 3.15") which has a piece of
Doodlebug Paper on the front, with thin foam tape.
I loved this set so much that I had to create another project with it. I took the other image in the
Clearly Besotted Telling Tales Line Up Stamp Set (the fairytale scene) and stamped it on to white cardstock. I then coloured only the dragon and cat part with Copic Markers and fussy cut it out with scissors. Since there were some extra lines around the image, I coloured over them with a white gel pen.
The image was then adhered on top with thin foam tape. I die cut a hole reinforcer from black cardstock and adhered that on top. I then tied a bow at the top of the tag with
twine/cord. To finish off, I added black glaze pen to their eyes and a few white gel pen highlights too.
