Tim Holtz/Sizzix: It’s Your Day! Celebration Etcetera Tag
I used the new Celebrate Colorize die set for this project and a Mini Etcetera Tag. Putting together these fun birthday dies was so fun, and easy!
I started by ink-blending some cardstock with the following Distress Ink colors:
- Kitsch Flamingo
- Squeezed Lemonade
- Mustard Seed
- Twisted Citron
- Mowed Lawn
- Salvaged Patina
- Peacock Feathers
- Shaded Lilac
- Wilted Violet
I then added adhesive to the cardstock I was going to die cut first. You could do this with a Xyron, or you could use double-sided adhesive sheets. Then you have all these stickers and it makes it so easy to put together the colorize dies!
I die-cut the balloons, streamers, and party hat out of the ink-blended pieces of cardstock and some glitter cardstock. I also die-cut some of the swirls and sparkles.
I set aside the die cuts and started to create the background. I traced the etcetera tag onto some Distress Watercolor Cardstock, and cut it out. I then created a rainbow-marbled background with Distress Paint.
You can see more details of this marbled background technique in a post I shared here.
I used the following Distress Paint colors:
- Picked Raspberry
- Kitsch Flamingo
- Spiced Marmalade
- Mustard Seed
- Twisted Citron
- Salvaged Patina
- Shaded Lilac
I then stamped out “it’s your day” with some foam ABC stamps from Tim Holtz, these have been discontinued, but any large ABC stamps would work. I used Black Soot Distress Oxide and stamped it onto Distress White Heavystock. I cut out the sentiment into word strips. I started to assemble the project- adding the marbled background to the etcetera tag with double-sided tape. I then adhered one of the streamers with Distress Collage Medium and then used black foam squares for the other two.
I added some Lawn Fawn black tie trimmings to the back of the balloons with black foam squares.
I then added a sprinkle of Chunky Glitter to the edges of the word strips, party hat, and streamers with Glossy Accents. I added some Prisma Glitter to the balloons with Glossy Accents as well so the sparkle appeared thicker. This is such a fun birthday project and would make a fun gift for anyone celebrating!
