More atc's

Another post with atc....getting quite into these now....

will have to buy some blanks as I've been cutting

them myself and it's quite difficult to get them all the same

corosponding size....

the stamp set is a small that is made especially for making

atc's.....it was stamped onto the card with memento ink.....I then

sponged on various shades of tim holts distressing ink...tumbled glass...

scattered straw....peeled paint.....dusty concord...the pearl is from

my stash....thanks for looking and feel free to leave a comment.....

ATC

This is my fist time making atc's....told

my friend I would never make them because

they are too fiddly....they are brilliant to make...

can try out different techniques

the stamp set I used is from woodware...

the background was stamped

with the stamp set ...the stamp set was cut out and coloured

in with copics....and background was sponged with

tim holts distressing ink straw.....

this atc was made the same way as the one above....

Note cards

to sell along side my cards...thought I' d have a go

at making some notelet cards to sell....

the image is from just rite stampers it

fits into the nesties....it's coloured in with

copics and then I added glossy accents to

the top of the flowers to make them shine....they where then

placed on to a scalloped nesties...the paper is from dcwv and is called

nana's kitchen....the paper is glossy and glittered...the cards

are 3" square....

these cards where made along the same as the

ones before.....the image is a magnolia.....just love the frog...

metalic gold pen by promarkers.....the background paper

is from my stash....these also are 3" square...

1 card 2 challenges

over on the corrosive challenge blog this week

they are asking for a faux technique...I have chosen

faux stitching....also on the scrappy frogs

challenge this week they are asking you to incorporate

faux stitching.....

this is the card I came up with for the 2 challenges...

the faux stitching is produced using the mat pack from

stampin up.....the papers are also

from stampin up(sorry don't know what they are called)...

the card is bazzill.....

the owl stamp is a new design from woodware....love

owls at the moment....it's stamped onto a nesties...

label 4...and the image is coloured in with a mixture

of promarkers and copics.....have always used promarkers in the past...

because thought copics too expensive to buy...but not much

different in price about 20p...the advantage of copics is that

they have a finner nip against promarkers...I then placed

the nestie back over the image and sponged on brushed

corduroy using a sponge...love the affect is makes...I made the card into an easel..

they sentiment was stamped onto a fancy tag by nesties...
