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 🙏🏻❤️

Easter basket

 Hi everyone,

I hope everyone that celebrates had a very Happy Easter.

Well today I have my last Easter project for this year to share with you.

At the bottom of this post you will see the metal bucket that I started this project with.

I used the Bunny Games and Carrot Bunny die sets and an Alphabet die set for the sentiment.

The sides of the tin were covered with card stock embossed and inked with Distress inks.

The foiled eggs are alcohol ink eggs and the others are from the Dollar store.

The ribbon was originally white which I sprayed with various colours of Distress spray inks.

Well that’s it for my fun Easter project and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Supplies:

Tim Holtz Bunny Games

Tim Holtz Carrot Bunny

Thinking of you

Hi everyone,

Today I have a card to share using some Tim Holtz products. I must admit I have purchased quite a lot of his products lately and am fun using them.

I used a stencil with 3 different colours of Distress inks to blend my background. 

The butterfly was die cut once from a distress coloured piece and then again with another piece of card stock which was sprayed with Distress ink sprays.

Before adding the panel to my card I distressed the edges. The sentiment was added to a piece of the same card base and foam mounted.

Below is a closeup of the butterfly to which I added gold embossing powder.

Well that’s it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by.
