Another Mixed Media Sunday ...

Another Sunday morning spent getting messy with paint, stamps and lots of other stuff!  These ATCs started as a print created using my gelli plate, acrylic paint and stencils.  I always hesitate before cutting my prints up ... but I do it anyway!!

I added modelling paste through a dotted stencil and some stamping to add more interest to the background.

I'm entering these into the Happy Little Stampers ATC challenge:



Enjoy!

Artist Trading Cards ...

Another busy day ... ironing, gardening, cooking and, of course, crafting!  As I mentioned in an earlier post, I'm over run with cards so I've been trying my hand at new paper based art. Today it has been all about Artist Trading Cards - ATCs for those in the know!  I have created one before but not shared it on my blog ... today I've created two cards so I thought I would let you all have a look,

These were both made with a print created on my gel printing plate with acrylics and stencils. Then I used Tim Holtz dies to add interest and detail.

There aren't many challenges for ATCs specifically but Kylie at Happy Little Stampers has launched a challenge this week ... so I might just pop over and enter these!



I've really enjoyed creating these and will no doubt be creating more ... they take up so little room.

Enjoy!
