This is my first attempt at mixed media and here are the supplies I used.  A 5" tag and a 6" tag that was too thin and I eventually scrapped.  I used Gesso from Walmart and then covered them with Faber Castell Gel Crayons ($12.25 at Amazon Prime).  and then used stencils from Tim Holtz called Burlap and on the red one I used the Dot Fade stencil.  I used Stucco Effect by Martha Stewart on it and the used the Essentials stencil by Diane Wakley on the red tag using the dot portion in certain areas of the tag.  I used wheels by Diane Wakley on the green one that I then scrapped because it was too thin.  I used the Butterfly Basics from Stampin' Up and stamped two butterflies on orange paper with rose red Stampin' Up ink. I used the butterfly punch from Stampin' Up and punched out the butterflies.   I used metallic rub ons (Ebay $6.52) to rub all over with the red and on the butterflies.   I glued the butterflies on with Tacky Glue.  So this is my first attempt at mixed media and I hope I did ok.
