Another ATC

I'm getting into these now, just need to find some nice ones to swap with.

The lovely Judie from Craftymess has an ATC challenge blog too so I thought I'd join in. Now the theme is Household Items or anything goes. Off the top of my head and without going through all my stamps I knew I had the Creative Expressions sewing kit so used that.



The background is a resist technique using an Invoke Arts tape meausre background and distress inks in blue. The sentiment was cut up and glazed with Glossy Accents.

The Stampman ATC swap - July

I got my set of ATC's back from the first Stampman swap I did last month and have to say they were lovely thank you to Susan, Tania and Jan (IoM)



The theme this month is "Vintage" so here are my three



1. Lili of the Valley postcard stamp, image from Magic Moonlight, Sizzix frame



2. Crafty Idividuals stamps



3. Paper Artsy cog stamp, image printed on canvas from Magic Moolight and Technique Tuesday sentiment

Hope you like them as much as I enjoyed making them.

ATC's - Trees

Morning all, don't know about where you are but the sun is shining here, what a nice change. Let's hope it's here to stay a while - at least till after our camping trip at weekend.

Anyway, I've been enjoying making ATC's and have been asking around about places to swap when someone suggested The Stamp Man who run a monthly swap.

The theme for June is trees



So from left to right here are the details:

1. Distress Ink background in Dried Marigold, Wild Honey, Rusty Hinge and Spiced Marmalade. Clarity stamp, embossed with metallic WOW powders.

2. Distress Ink background in Bundled Sage, Crushed Olive, Tumbled Glass, Stormy Sky and Fired Brick. Artemio stamps.

3. Distrss Ink stain backround in Vintage Photo then embossed with Tim Holtz tree bark folder. Leaf cut out tin can with TH Tattered Leaves and coloured with Alcohol Inks.

This is the first time I've joined in so hope they are ok.

First ATC's

I've been on a bit of a rollercoaster ride lately and struggled to do much crafting so thought I'd ease myself back into it with something quick - something I've been meaning to do for a long time .... ATC's.

I did have a go once before when I first started crafting so we're talking decoupage and peeloffs but I really struggled with the size they were just too small lol.

Anyway when I got into stamping and more recently altered art thought what can be so hard so I have finally given it a go and must say I quite enjoyed making them.



The first three are for a swap on Craftymess with a "Beach/Seaside" theme the others I'll keep for now.
