One of the facebook groups I belong to has all kinds of exchanges. Some are  Happy Mail where you mail to your partner things that fit the monthly theme and some we make specific things to send.  One of the upcoming exchanges is for textured tags.  I have never really played around with texture much.  I never really THOUGHT about it.  So I went and got myself some modeling paste, dug out some stencils, chip board, matte medium and other assorted items and got to it.  How hard could it be right? I am here to tell you that it is highly addictive.  Like chips, you can't have just one.

 The best thing that I discovered about texture is how you can manipulate color!  I had Gelatos ( I just adore the Faber Castell Gelatos BTW ), iridescent medium, acrylics, stamp dyes you name it I probably tried it.  Here is a sampling of the final products.

I don't think the pictures actually do this much justice.  I am really pleased.  I am listing some of the products that I used below.  Have fun!
