Hello friends,
Today I want to share two tags I made using the Cross Hatch die released in February. It is a perfect die to create back ground or add texture. When I received this die my first impulse was to try texture for Mixed media.
1.
I took many die cuts with the die and stuck few of them together for more depth. I took a water color paper and trimmed it to 6 x 3.5 inches. I stuck the die cuts and gave a coat of white gesso. I prepared the back ground using various sprays and colors. I stamped using Grunge effects stamps with Black Archival ink. I took a leaf mdf cut out and coated it with gesso. I colored that also with the colors used for the background. I added few handmade flowers and sequins and the sentiment.
2.
I took another piece of watercolor paper with the same measurement as the above. I coated it with black gesso and colored it with Art Alchemy acrylic paints. You can see the metallic sheen in the colors. I added the die cuts and made a few splashes with white gesso. I added few layers with doily, cheesecloth and lace. I added few hand made flowers and finished with sequins and sentiment.
Here is a picture of both the tags.

Hope you liked my projects and inspired you to try out the amazing die release.
Till next time - Happy crafting
