Midnight Snack Tag by Nina

 Hello Ai fans, Nina here and today I am sharing a new cute Ai tag for my Tag Journal of Art Impressions. Today I am making a picnic scene for last week's challenge "Midnight Snack" so I needed a picnic cooler bag and I improvised and turned the Crafter Bag from the set ___ to a picnic cooler bag. I am also using the Tag Stitched Dies Set.


I cut my Tag from White paper multiple times and attached them together to make them sturdy. I then used Broken China and Mermaid Lagoon Distress inks to create a background for my scene.


I stamped my images using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink that is Copic friendly and colored them with Copics.

For my snack & critter images, I used these sets:

Produce Stand MTF (Racoon)
Craft Bag Die Set (Bag)
Front Porch Harvest Set (Apple Bushel)
MB Coffee Shop (Cupcake, Cake & Cookies)
Road Trip Set (Hot Drink Cup)
I colored the cat from "Spooky Wagon Set" but I ended up not using it.

I colored all the images with these Copic shades:

Reds: R21 R27 R29 R32 R59

Orange: YR27

Yellow: Y02 Y06 Y08

Yellow Greens: YG01 YG23 YG25

Pinks: RV14

Blues: B05

Browns: E15 E17 E25 E99

Greys: C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6 N4 N6


I then cut my images, backed them with foam tape. I die cut a grass border from green cardstock and glued it directly on my tag.

I inserted my snack image in the slits of the cooler bag and attached it on the grass border and attached the racoon next to it.

I also die cut the word PICNIC from alphabet dies and colored with the same Copic shades..

I added some enamel dots and hearts to decorate my scene.

I then opened the metal ring of my tag album and added my new tag to it.

What a clever idea to use the craft bag as a picnic basket. A cute card.
