CIP - YT Girl Tag

Hi CIP fans and followers!  I was going through my images and came across this YouTube Girl from Whimsie Doodles!  I thought it would fun to do a tag for a change, and used plenty of the shimmery paints from the Creative Inspirations Paint store.  The paint colors used are: Aqua Marine (the background), Sky Blue, Copper, Beige, and Fairy Dust.   The seam binding is done using the Sapphire Creative Inspiration Paint.  

Here is a closer look at the CIP products that I've used:

CIP - Nutcracker Tag

Hi there CI Paint fans!  Kimberly here, and I'm back with a new project with Creative Inspirations Paint.  I've used three colors from the Creative Inspirations Paint line on my Nutcracker Tag that I've created with recycled chipboard (cereal box).  The background of the tag is covered in Sapphire, the snowflakes and Nutcracker's hair is Winter Frost, and his shoes are Evergreen.  I've also used Siam (SS20) Jeweled Inspirations for the snowflake centers and on the Nutcracker's hat.

I've worked on some new tags this week and had a lot of fun trying out some new things.  Two of the flowers are made using book pages, the third is with cardstock.  All three were sprayed with Tattered Angel's Glimmer Mist.  The stamps are all from a Fiskars set I have wanted to use for such a long time (sounds familiar, right?...lol).  the images are stamped with Momento and colored with Smooches.
