12 tags of 2016 - june...

I just love these challenges.  Here's my attempt at the June, 2016 challenge -

The background is the chambray textile surface.  Fired Brick and Picket Fence combine with the stripe stencil to make the plaid pattern.

I didn't have any substrate sheet for the overlay so I used some mat board, applied the tissue wrap and  collage medium.  Stamped a retired Fiskars clear background stamp in Archival Cobalt blue.

The Stacked Star Bigz die, which was the original spark for this project, was used to create the negative spaces.

Once the project was adhered I used a stitching stamp for a border.  Distressed and ink the edges.  Added white gel pen to highlight the stars. Some chit chat stickers and a star finish the project.
