3 ATC's


I like to make ATC's when I am playing and trying out new techniques. The first one used lots of layering. I brushed a green inkpad lightly over the card, then used a chipboard swirl for a mask and oversprayed with a couple of colours of glimmer mist. I then roughly filled in the swirl pattern with gold leaf. Overstamped using black ink with another swirl pattern. Then dabbed a little gold leaf from a gold leaf pen onto some plastic and used up another piece of scrunched up plastic to pick it up quickly and dab around the edge.
The exotic lady background was sponged with pale pastel inks and lightly oversprayed with a pale glimmer mist. The background was then stamped and embossed in silver. The picture was watercoloured and a small amount of glitter glue added to the jewels.
The forna card was made in the same way and overstamped with a cube stamp to give an interesting tile pattern. I used very fine glitter in different pastel colours to emphazise the tiles. One of the designs was then stamped onto shrink plastic and coloured with pencils.
