I was inspired to make this pair of tags after watching a series of three videos by Jennifer McGuire. She shared how to use Paint Dabbers in a layered mask technique, how to stamp with paint, and a number of other Paint Dabber techniques. I decided to use both the layered mask technique and stamping with paint to make these tags. What I like most about the final tags is the contrast between the shine of the pearlescent ink on the left and the smooth matte finish of the paint from the dabbers on the right.
