Tags: Oriental Doll Tag

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!

It's Laurie here with a reminder that you still have a few days left to make and enter your tag projects here on the Portal for a chance to win some free stamps.  Only requirement is that your project is in the tag format, so that leaves you free to be as creative as you want!

This tag uses the Oriental Doll stamp from Lost Coast Designs.  This was pretty simple but I love this stamp and finding different ways to add color to it.  I started by stamping my doll onto white card stock and cutting it out.  Using red and yellow Copic Sketch markers, I colored in the doll.  I then took a gold gel pen and added highlights to the doll's hair and her costume.  I think that the gold accents really kicked it up a notch.  I used the same markers to color in the checked border and added some gold rick rack to the top as my tag hanger.

We look forward to seeing your tag makes - challenge ends the end of November so hurry and get them posted!!
