Just finished an ATCswap
What are ATC's? They are Artist Trading Cards.
They are small works of art, traded amongst artists.
They measure 3 1/2" x 2 1/2"
This swap had a moon theme.
Here are the five cards I sent in.
These two are similar. One has glitter all over the moon and one, just around it.
I sponged with Distress Inks on Shimmery White cardstock, using a simple circle mask for the moon using both the negative and the positive parts. Star punches and Stickles glitter glue and then I sewed the edges.
This one I sponged again, using the Distress Inks and Glossy cardstock. I can't believe I never sponged on glossy cs before! I had the little Cheshire Cat, just laying around all colored in AND cut out, so he just jumped on this card. He is popped up on foam adhesive. The ribbon is Summer Starfruit Stitched Satin ribbon, from Stampin' Up! and stiched around with matching thread.
This one is sponged with Distress Inks and a couple pine trees stamped in. I used my paper piercer to poke the holes for stitching with a 1/8" organdy ribbon.
The last one, I embossed the circle design and again sponged on Shimmery White cardstock, using the Distress Inks, and then I water colored with ink the darker yellow shade in the moon. I spritzed it a little with some Color Wash spray and stamped the floral/leaves in Concord Crush ink. Finally topping it off with some golden colored gems.
Thanks for stopping by!
