Use Riverstone Texture Medium through a decorative stencil to create some texture in the background. Allow texture to dry completely or dry with a heat tool.

Mix A small amount of Gilded Azure Polishing Plaster with water. Spray the areas of dried stenciled texture with water then dab the polishing plaster mixture on. Spray again with water and move the tag around to allow the color to flow. Let dry completely.

Lightly brush on Gilded Azure Polishing Plaster to the inner portion of the wings as shown in the picture below. Brush the outside of the wings, flowers, and chipboard pieces in Dove's Wing Polishing Plaster.

Finally, build a focal point by adding fussy cuts, foliage, chipboard pieces, etc. Use scrap chi[board or foam to adhere embellishments at different levels for dimension.

To add a finishing touch, add art stones, glitter, and beads. I used a silver gel pen to draw a thin line around the outside of each tag and brushed a bit of Gilded Azure Polishing Plaster as well.
