Gnarly Dude

The Mixed Media ATC trade this month was entitled Tags, so an ATC with a tag. I thought I would double tag it - a tag on a tag, get it ? LOL  I used Twinkie from Stampotique for this project, because he is after all, one Gnarly Dude !  Although he is a little bit naughty to be doing graffiti ! LOL

First I painted the background messily (is that a word ? LOL) in a few colors :

Then I colored molding paste with brown acrylic paint and used a brick stencil, adding glass glitter when it was wet. Twinkie was stamped, colored with copics and fussy cut. The Gnarly tag took me ages, I was googling graffiti tags, its harder to do that it looks you know ! LOL But it turned out ok. The Dude are die cut letters from the same painted card stock as above.

Have a gnarly day x
