Then I dried it some with my heat tool and added a bit more stains directly onto the tag here and there, dried it more and sponged the edges with Black Soot. The images were stamped onto acrylic from discarded packaging, trimmed out and glued down with multi medium. The sentiment is from the Quote and Quotables plate. I wanted to give it just a tad more interest so I edged it with a mixture of gold EP and UTEE and then added a couple of bronze filigree pieces with black pearl accents.
If you know my work, you will know this was a bit out of the box for me, but I had fun with it and really like the result. Thanks for stopping by today to see what I made for my weekly DT piece for Artistic Outpost. And don't forget our February Referral Challenge with a theme of Anything Goes.

What an awesome background- love this project!
I love the sense of atmosphere you have created, a truly stunning make! trace x
Just magical, Linda - Romantic with a capital R, full of all that 18th/19th century yearning and huge emotional sweeping stories (I'm thinking Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, but mostly Beethoven and Mahler!!). So dramatic - a stunning background, amazing use of the stamps and altogether wonderful!!

Up late playing video game, checked email and saw this awesome piece!! It is amazing and needed no translation to understand the message. This is what all interpreters of art strive for! Well done!

Fabulous tag! Away from home but will try these techniques once home!
I just love your blog and find it so inspiring. This is just wonderful. Can't wait to see what you create next. xxx
Wow, what an amazing piece, - I was enthralled with it the moment I set eyes on it! The effect of the tissue with all its texture so suits the theme and the clever stamping on the acrylic has made it merge together seamlessly. I am in awe of how you managed to put it together so beautifully without the inevitable shinyness of the acrylic coming through. Just stunning!
I absolutely ADORE this Linda- it's such an atmospheric piece - all broody romance and dashing gentlemen. Fabulous.
Wow, wow, wow! The dimension in this is just off the hook! You feel as though you could walk right into this scene. Fabulous use of texture and color. You created a mood here, and it's just wonderful.
It strikes me funny that I could stare at your tags all day. That's not the part that strikes me funny, but the fact that I love all the elements you've added to your seaside project, but I found myself staring longer at the "pre" tag! Those colors and the textures are beautiful together.
An amazing piece! Fab background. You've created so much movement and depth here. One would never know this isn't your usual style. :D
Wow that is an amazing work of art, Beautifully done!
Wow! Linda this is absolutely fabulous! Love Love Love it!

Such a feeling of romance and mystery -- Linda you are so darned good!!

Hello Linda,
You have achieved an outstanding piece in creating this tag, it looks angry and wild, depicting the stormy scene perfectly.
The colours and the elements that you have used along with the tissue technique, is ingenious.

I am curious, when you say you wanted to use the beyond the sea plate, what was that exactly? Can you clarify for me what you printed your light house on, it sounds like you did not stamp that directly on the tag but on something else and then glued to the tag, am I correct? It is absolutely beautiful, I love all of the texture.
