Deer in the Woods-ATC

 

This background is done with alcohol inks and the images (Stampscapes) has been stamped with black India Ink.

Vintage ATC

This is an ATC Christmas tree ornament I created for an ATC group I belong to.  Each year, in November, we create vintage ATCs that can be hung from the tree.  We’ve been doing this for about 4 years now and it is such fun to pull them out every year and hang them.  This cutie patootie is clip art from Luna Girl.  I’ve added some gold Peel-Offs (Magenta), highlighted the tree lights with a glitter pen and pierced the borders using my Tim Holtz ruler; a tool that is a must have if you like to do hand stitching on your papercrafts.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

I Love A Sale

Who doesn’t love a good sale, eh?  This ATC I made for a monthly swap I participate in.

I’ve had this stamp for ages and have never used it.  Feels good to ink up some neglected rubber.  LOL

Have a great day!

Princess

Doesn’t she just look like a princess?  I love this Stampsmith stamp and had the perfect opportunity to ink her up.  The ATC was made for a “Here Kitty” mingle I recently participated in.  I colored the image in with a damp paintbrush and Tombow markers.  And, I managed to get my Dymo label maker working again!  Yippee!

Faux Postage

This is an ATC I made for a mingle.  The theme was postage.  It gave me the opportunity to use many small stamps that seldom see ink.  The coloring was done with Prismacolor pencil crayons. (My favorite coloring medium).

Thanks for looking & have a wonderful day!

I wonder what her secret is?

Merry Christmas Tree Ornament

For November we were to create an ATC that could be hung on a tree. The stamp from Tim Holtz is stamped with black StazOn ink on to an alcohol ink background. I really love the colors of this. What do you think?

I Love Chocolate!

I participated in a "House" ATC mingle on one of my groups. I literally destroyed my Roger's Chocolates catalogue to create these pieces. I'm really pleased with the way they turned out. What do you think?

Reading

This is an ATC I made for one of my groups. The theme is reading. I applied various inks with a sponge and the flowers are done with a gel pen.

These ATCs were made for a mingle.

Halloween ATCs.

Here are three ATCs for a mingle on one of the groups I belong to.

African Safari ATC

I've used a portion of one of my favorite Magenta stamps for this ATC. I stamped on glossy cardstock with Stazon Jet Black ink and colored the image with Tombow markers.

Vintage ATC

I did this ATC for a monthly Vintage Group I belong to. The background is stamped with Colorbox Fluid chalk pads.

The focal image (by Stampsmith), is trimmed down and stamped with black StazOn solvent ink on glossy cardstock and colored with Zig Photo markers. I've added some Stickles for a little "bling".

Colored Zentangle ATC

Here I was doodling again! LOL. A bit of a change from stamping!

Chalk Inks.

Lately I've been using my fluid chalk inks a lot. I love the richness of the colors.

For this ATC, I used the Hero Arts distressed block stamp. Chalk inks were applied and then I stamped on to matte cardstock.

The images are overstamped with Ranger Archival black ink.

My first Zentangle

Here's something way different for me! I always liked to doodle and my friend Sue, from one of my favorite online groups, does some amazing Zentangles. She encouraged me to give it a try and this is my first attempt. It's ATC size.

Kind of neat looking, eh? Be forwarned, these are very addicting!!!! LOL.

Feathered Friends

Here's another ATC done for the mingle.

My sister sent me these stamps. Aren't they cute?

I stamped them with Brilliance Lightning Black ink and clear embossed. The words are stamped with Versafine Onyx black ink and I've added some clip art to which I applied Ranger's Crackle Medium. The paper is a piece of leftover scrap from a gorgeous Wild Asparagus sheet.

Birdies!

These are 2 ATCs that I've done for a mingle that I am participating in.

The green one is done from a scrap of background paper I had made using watercolor sprays. The stamps are from Inkadinkadoo and Magenta.

The second one is a new Magenta stamp. I stamped with Brilliance Lightning Black and clear embossed. I then colored the image with alcohol markers.

Birds Galore

The birdie from Inkadinkadoo's "Birds Galore" clear set has been stamped with black Versafine ink and embossed with black e/p. Butterscotch and Denim Adirondack inks were then applied using the Tim Holtz blending tool. To highlight certain areas, I've bleached out and then reapplied the Butterscotch ink again to those areas.
