 Hello everybody, it's Iva from Bohemian Crafting here again. Today I would like to share with you how you can create this very cool Epemera or tag insert for your journals, for your books. I love Rusty Effect, I really do. So I'm doing this style of Epemera sometimes, not too often, but sometimes yes. And I started with white card, I think it's 260 g, it's a really very strong, beautiful card. 8 inches by 4 inches, that's what I started to make this. Then I've got here this Sizzix, Tim Holtz vintage cabinet card. It's that big die. Then I used this small movers and shapers, it is, if I will don't lose it again, the name of that. Mini clipboard top and bottom, I'm sorry, mini clipboard top and bottom. And the number, I have to take it off. The number of this Sizzix die, Tim Holtz die, it's here 658560, that's the number of this die. Then I used Sizzix, big, not Sizzix, big shot, big shot machine for cutting my paper, my card. So I'm using the big shot for cutting, I will show you all steps. Then I used Distress Ink, normal Distress Ink, not Oxide, I don't have any oxides yet. I'm just using this one because I know it, it's walnut stain, Distress Ink. Then I used those three colors, this is double acrylic paint Espresso. I have to zoom it again. This is Espresso. Then I used this Distress Paint and this is Rusty Hinges, Rusty Hinge. And then I used Distress Paint Broken China, this one. Then I've got in a bottle, I've got water and I put there one drop of T-Dite, T-Dite Distress. One drop of Distress Ink, one drop off to this bottle of water. And I think that's all. Then I used eyelets, I used one eyelet with washer from that other side. It's 8 millimeters, I'm using these Abbey Tops, Antique Copper, those. They are 8 millimeters, you will need some tool for it. I've got this Hummering tool, I've got Hummer and the plate underneath. I used also small eyelet for this small clip. And two, no, two, four brats here. So we can start and also some change. We can start, first you will need some card. And first I placed, I'm using this cabinet card just because it has beautiful space and it will create also card for me. So I placed this top, this clip, mini clipboard top here. I tried to put it in the middle. Then I placed my card on the end, on the edge, I matched that with the edge and here I tried to be in middle of those sides of that cabinet card. And I cut the piece through. I hope you will see something like this. I don't have too much space, so I've got my big die. I've got one plate down, one plate up, I need new plates because they are already too much used. And I went through this. I've been left with this one, so it's one piece. And then I took this leftover. So here I will have the top, that mini clipboard. I will have also the tuck. I will have also a tuck. Later I've got this top. Here I have to put it. And then I place it back, this one, exactly same way. I'm gonna have a look because it's straight like this. And I tried to place this one on the top. Again, I try to place it again somehow in the middle to match it all together. And again, cut. Maybe this way. I hope I am in the middle. And cut it again. Another mini clipboard top row. Come on. I've got this piece. And I've got this piece. So then I used those my colors. It's pretty much very dirty work, but I don't mind when I do some rusty effect. I really don't mind too much to get dirty from my colors because I like that rusty effect. So first what I did, I used that walnut stain distress ink. This is that... It was very wet. I think I will have to re-ink it again. I went with my ink pad over those pieces. And I did all of them at the same time because I wanted to color all of them at the same time. I went like this and I didn't pay too much attention because I will have colors somewhere more and somewhere less because I want to do some rusty effect. And rust is never very straight or same on all places. Then I used this double espresso and I went with the double just like this. And to put there a little bit more that brown color. Like this. Just really do not stress over it. So dab, dab, dab. Then I moved that on the side. And I used rusty hinges. And I put a little bit of that paint on my table. I've got glass table, which is brilliant for coloring. And I sprayed that with that water with one drop off, one drop off. What is it? T-died coloring. T-died distress ink. And I made like spa for my tux. And then I always took similar, similar like this. And I dab it to that paint like this. And then I went tap, tap. And I did quite a lot of together. Now I put here kind of too much, too much color. So I think I will do, I will have to do something more because I've got here too much color. Maybe it will be more, more this orange color. And I just dab, dab, dab all these pieces, one on each other because it makes, I'm not sure how to explain it. It makes like maps on my paper. Very weird maps, but they are very effective. Really very effective. Once they dry, they do amazing effect on my papers. With that cut like this. And when I had somewhere a little bit more, I dab, dab, dab, dab on that other piece. And I can go with this large one. I know it's not proper artistic technique, probably this one, that I'm just dabbing and it doesn't have sense, doesn't make sense right now. But I found that this way I do have very interesting result. So I place it on the side. I tied up my table a little bit because I wanted to have then a blue, blue spa for my pieces. Before I put them to that blue color, I used my heating tool and I dried all of these colors with my heating tool first. All those paints I dried with this. I think I will pause that video because it's very heavy card stock so once it gets some water in it, it takes quite long time to dry it properly. But before I will add that blue paint. I don't wanna mix those colors together. I don't wanna make dirty that blue paint too much. This looks good. And with those colors, it's amazing effect with those colors. All three of them, that broken china and those rusty hinges together. And I think that walnut stain distress ink makes so much to that rusty effect. It's somehow matching to rust I know. Hopefully now I'm gonna move it again. I'm gonna dab a little bit. I don't have too many tugs here. And I'm gonna spray a little bit this one as well. Again with that. With that. No with water. With that water with... Come on Evie. With tea dye distress ink. And I went like this really. I was just dipping and dabbing and then you know to put it here and there. Because rust and those effects are never... They are not precise. They are not on special places. They are just growing where they want to grow. So you don't need to control the rust this way. And when I had those splashes like when I am dipping it out and it makes very, very splashes I just tap it on that other tuck. Yeah, like splashes like this. So now I know I have to take something or my finger like this. And I think I'm gonna let it dry. Now I will try. Now I'm gonna use again the heating tool and here I will try to use again a walnut stain. Walnut stain distress ink. Like this and now I'm going just here and there. Just short, very, very light touches. With my finger just really here and there. Very soft touches. When you take something on camera when you try to do video on camera Hey, camera! It's always different when you try to do it without camera. Like this. Here on that small one. And here. Like this and last touch will be that distress ink. With that wet distress ink I'm just smashing over it. Just get some color on those edges some darker color on those edges. You can use distress tool just on those edges but as I said the rust is never on places where we want it. It's always somewhere else so if you will do it this way you will probably have a rusty effect on a right position. And it's still a little bit wet once it will dry it will a little bit change the colors. Wash my fingers because they are like this. My cable just hit my leg. And now what I need I got here card, book page glued on a card. It's very light card, it's nothing too hard. I'm gonna take one of these pieces those cutouts too small. It should be four or a little bit less than four. It's a little bit less than four. So I'm gonna cut exactly same part here. A little bit less than four. I can fit. Can I here? That's exactly. I'm gonna place it like this. This way I guess. Here I need to, I've got a little bit of book page over that edge. So I've got here, I've got card stock. I forgot. Three and seven eights by four and a half. And this small piece is four and a half by two. That smaller piece. I'm going to take distress ink again walnut stain but this time it's that dry one. That dry ink pad I'm using for distress ink. It's easy, it's fast. I'm gonna distress a little bit edges. I need tool for holes. I'm gonna make holes one here, one here and exactly on that opposite side. I will try at least one here and one here somewhere. I guess here. I'm gonna take those brats and I'm gonna fix them inside immediately. Flatten it to make sure they will hold properly and you can use, you know, you can use gloves on your hands to not get dirty from that painting but I really don't mind too much. It will get off once in the future. And I'm not preparing for some ball or something myself so I don't mind too much. Now I can take a glue and I can glue it down. I'm gonna put glue here on those short sides and here on the bottom. This is the... Please go there. That's the bottom part. Now I'm gonna take this top one. I'm gonna place this piece and I'm gonna put the glue on all that space. Make sure I will glue it all together. Especially here I need to put glue because this part will glue both those parts together. You know, you can use like a longer card but I've got those leftovers like this and place it over those two cards like this. Make sure from other side that you have it right. I hope it's straight like this. I'm gonna cut with my scissors around this top one and I think you can see that now once it getting dry so it's getting much more interesting. I'm gonna punch the hole here or a few holes because I'm gonna use that large 8mm eyelet. I need that eyelet. I'm gonna take one eyelet come here. One eyelet and I'm gonna press it through here. I'm gonna take one that washer from that other side. Oh no, not yet. I forgot to distress it and it will be better to distress it right now. Before I will put there that eyelet so I'm gonna use it again like this. Good. Now I can put there that eyelet. I'm gonna take my tool here is my tool here is my tool come here and I'm gonna beat it down to put it together sorry for that noise but this way you will fix it I'm gonna pause this video because I need to beat it a little bit more so I put this base now I'm gonna glue this I've got here a small just small tack and it will fit exactly so I'm gonna put glue from one side on this edge and I'm gonna glue this tack on it this way I guess this tack on it like this I've got somewhere here here that eyelet so I'm gonna fix the eyelet here in this top hole and I'm gonna fix the eyelet here like this and now only chain is missing and I do have here some chain so I'm gonna put the chain here I think it will be enough and some decoration some embellishment something I can hung from it so I think I'm gonna take small this one what is it oh my fingers are very very dirty so I'm first I'm gonna hang this charm and it's starting to be really dark so I'm gonna finish this video right now but that end you know I'm just gonna fit the eyelet to that chain that chain I'm gonna put through to this not eyelet this one jumping to that chain with that jumping I'm gonna put ends of that chain together but for me right now it will be really for a long time so I'm gonna end this video now I hope you like this very easy but really beautiful ephemera sorry for that darkness right now it went dark really fast than I expected thank you so much for watching I hope you do some idea what to do with those beautiful colors and also with Tim Holtz and Cisic Dice thank you so much for watching thank you so much for all your amazing comments and I hope I will see you next time have a beautiful day and see you next time bye
