Rita Barakat and Emerald Creek Blog Hop!

I am so excited for the NEW release of the Rita Barakat Embossing Powder line by Emerald Creek! I got to play with two of the new colors -- Dragon's Egg and Mermaid Fin. Dragon's Egg is a gorgeous purple and Mermaid Fin is a sparkly glitter blue. The first project I created with it is this:

 I had so much fun with making that tag that I decided to create another:
 I first gathered my material: a tag and these three paints.
 Using my fingers I applied the acrylic paint to the tag.
 Using the Zen Cloud Art Foamie stamp I stamped and embossed the image with Dragon' Egg.
I applied the color shield and  I inked the edges and embossed them twice with Mermaid Fin to create a gorgeous thick border.
 Using foam dots I adhered the mermaid to the tag.
 Finally I added some glitter glue and clear glaze to make her shine.

Make sure you hop on through to see other amazing projects from the design team and leave a comment on each blog to be entered in a chance to win a set of embossing powder! Winner will be announced on Mixed Media via Rita Barakat's FB page September 3!
