One more in my series of Jane Inspired Projects!

“Indulge your imagination in every possible flight.”  Are from a letter Elizabeth writes to her aunt Mrs. Gardiner in Pride and Prejudice.

If you haven't guessed I am a fan of Jane Austen!  I love creating things JANE! Today I have another tag created with Blank Page Muse stamps.  I love the two Jane inspired plates of Jane images and words.   

To create the tag, I used the following stamps from Blank Page Muse:

Words by Jane Sentiments & Silhouette Images Rubber Art Stamp Sheet SC202

Daisy Flower Art Rubber Stamp TTS117-08

I really fell in love this the background on this tag.  To create the tag, randomly stamp the Blank Page Muse Daisy Flower on the text. With a blending brush apply Fossilized Amber heavily on the stamped flowers.  Then lightly apply the ink to the space between the flowers.  Attach the text to the tag and trim off excess paper.  

Stamp the silhouette and sentiment of ivory cardstock.  Layer the srapmed ivory carstock on light yellow and brown cardstock. Then attach to the tag with dimensional foam. 

Finish the tag by adding flower, half pearls and fibers.

Fourth in my series of Blank Pag Muse Jane Inspired Projects!

Today’s tag is inspired by a quote from Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park.  “I was quiet, but I was not blind.” Fanny says this during a difficult conversation with Mary Crawford, the night before Mary & Henry Crawford are to leave for London.   

To create the tag, I used the following stamps and stencil from Blank Page Muse:

Butterflies and Flowers Layering Mixed Media Stencil BPMSTbflower

Words by Jane Sentiments & Silhouette Images Rubber Art Stamp Sheet SC202

Other supplies
Distress Inks Dried Marigold, Ripe Persimmon and Squeezed Lemonade

VersaFine Black Onyx ink

Flower & Half Pearls Fibers

First, with a blending brush lightly apply Dried Marigold Distress Oxide to the base tag. Then using the Butterflies and Flowers Layering Mixed Media Stencil BPMSTbflower and small blending brushes, apply Ripe Persimmon Distress Oxide ink to the edges of the flowers then and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide ink to the center.

On ivory cardstock stamp the Blank Page Muse image and sentiment.  Did you notice Jane's face in the silhouette? Sort of spooky.  

Layer the ivory paper with the stamped images on a coordinating cardstock. 

Add flowers, half pearls and fibers to finish the tag.

Another Jane Inspired Project for Blank Page Muse

Today I am sharing my second in a series of Jane inspired projects.  I fell in love with the two "Words by Jane" stamp plates over at Blank Page Muse. They are inspired by the works of Jane Austen. If you know me you know I LOVE all things JANE!  My plan for the stamp sets is to do a series of Jane projects!

Today is a Jane Austen inspired tag! Let me introduce Darcy.

Ahere text from old book “Pride & Prejudice” to tag with gel gloss medium. Remove excess paper around the edges of the tag.

Use the Blank Page Muse – Bedazzled Diamonds Stencil designed by Pam Bray PBSTbdzz with Cosmic Shimmer - glossy glaze Honeydew Melon creating a diamond pattern. Let the glossy glaze dry, then ink the tag with Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink Gathered Twigs or similar color. The Glossy Glaze diamonds create a resist. Wipe the tag with a paper towel to remove ink from the glossy glaze diamonds.

With VersaFine black ink stamp the Blank Page Muse - "Darcy" and Sentiment – “Time will Explain” from Words by Jane Man & Woman Figures Sentiments Rubber Art Stamp Sheet (SC201). Heat emboss both images with clear embossing powder. With Studio Light Watercolor Markers (or desired markers) color "Darcy" image. Fussy cut "Darcy".

Adhere the acetate clock face, place double-sided tape strategically behind "Darcy".   Cut the sentiment to desired size, edge with Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink Gathered Twigs or similar color. With dimensional foam attach sentiment as pictured.


Adhere the image of "Darcy" with dimensional foam to the acetate clock again. Attach three epoxy stickers to the lower right of the tag. To finish the tag, add ribbons.

Set aside to dry.

 With VersaFine black ink stamp the Blank Page Muse - Jane and Sentiment – “It isn’t what you say…” from Words by Jane Man & Woman Figures Sentiments Rubber Art Stamp Sheet (SC201).  Heat emboss  both images with clear embossing powder.  With Studio Light Watercolor Markers (or desired markers) color Jane image.  Fussy cut Jane.

 Add lace about a ¼ inch from the bottom of the tag. With dimensional foam attach sentiment as pictured.
