Hello Friends
As we roll into Autumn, I thought I would celebrate those last few days of Summer by creating some summery ATCs as my GDT post for AALL & Create.
I used Tracy Evans' Butterfly and Dragonfly Stamp Set #45 along with Autour de Mwa's Lotza Dotz Stencil #39.
I started off by brayering two colours of Paper Artsy paints onto my chipboard ATC bases. I used Aqua Duck Egg and Cherry Blossom.
I added some Distress Oxide Re-inker in Broken China to colour some embossing paste and applied it through the Lotza Dotz stencil. It leaked a little on the left hand side ATC but I wasn't worried as this would be covered up.
I stamped out my images (the butterfly is not shown here) and coloured them with Distress Inks.
I added a pen nib to the butterfly and stamped and applied two of the sentiments from the stamp set.
This is the stamp set and stencil I used. You can find a full list of worldwide stockists HERE. You can of course, purchase them direct using the same link but you are encouraged to support your local stockist wherever possible.
Thanks so much for your visit, it is much appreciated. I hope to see you again soon.
Hugs, Anne xx

ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful Anne, I love the gentle colours but I always forget that you can use re-inkers other than for er re-inking lol. I'm sorry I'm late in visiting but we've had our last caravan trip of the year. Have a very happy week, Sue xx
