Anything Goes: Coat Lady

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

Welcome back to all - it's Laurie here again with another project for our January Challenge:  Anything Goes.  For this one, I made a tag and used the Coat Lady stamp, the Pieces of Calligraphy stamp set, both from Lost Coast Designs.  The sentiment is from Carmen's Veranda

To make my tag cover, I stamped each of the calligraphy piece stamps in the set onto a copy of a master board collage I had made, then cut them out and inked the edges with Distress Vintage Photo ink.  I then created a collage using those pieces on the front of my tag, fitting them to cover the tag.  I edged that entire tag with the same Distress Ink.

My Coat Lady was stamped with black ink onto white paper and fussy cut out.  I added a bit of color to her face with Copic Sketch markers and affixed her to the left side of the tag with foam tape.

The sentiment was stamped onto a white square with black ink and edged with black marker.  I fastened it to the card front as shown and put a piece of foam tape under the right side so it would sit flat on the card front.

We are excited to see the Anything Goes projects you are making this month and hope that YOU will be the lucky winner of some free stamps!
