Trio of ATC’s

Hi everyone,

I have never made an ATC before but thought I would give it a try. It’s quite challenging to me to a lot in a small space. Well I had fun and maybe this is a new crafty venture for me. Who knows 🤔 

Started by adding a little colour to the backgrounds with Distress Watercolour pencils.

I then added a stencil to each with Grit paste and sprayed on some Distress spray stains.

Below are close up photos 

Well that’s it for my Trio of ATC’s. Stay tuned for more maybe 😘 and thanks for stopping by 🙏🏻❤️

Friendship

Hi everyone,

The new Love Notes stamp set from Tim Holtz and Stampers Anonymous isn’t just for Valentine’s Day.

Here I used it to create a card for a friend.

 I smooshed the ink pads over my craft mat, spritzed with a little water and used a paint brush to pick up some colour to lightly swipe over a piece of white card stock to create my background panel.

Layered a white die cut panel over top, added my sentiment and a red embossed heart.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻❤️

Happy Birthday treat box

Hi everyone,

It has been a while but I thought I would share my little birthday treat box with you today.

I started my die cutting the box with plain white card stock, and then I painted on the rainbow of colours using distress paints, and then added little drops with a Mica stain spray.

At the end of each box I added a piece of gold coloured metallic card stock.

I die cut the Happy birthday with gold glitter card stock and adhered the letters to the front of the box.

It was pretty quick and easy to do but certainly makes a nice little treat box to give to someone for their birthday or any other occasion for that matter.

I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by🙏🏻
