A-R-T ATC's

Here's more ATC's this week, but these are for the Creative Block - Stamper's Anonymous Yahoo Group Bi-Monthly ATC Swap. The challenge was to make 3 ATC's but using 3 different stamps.  I've had these three letter stamps for quite some time, but haven't used them yet, so I thought this was the perfect time to get them inky.
I wanted these to be a little Art Journaly....so I instantly thought of Dylusions. I sprayed the manila paper with water first and then sprayed five different Ink Sprays on. A little more water was sprayed on,and then the paper was dried with a heat gun.
I flicked some water on the paper...so loving the flicking lately! Doesn't this look like Aurora Borealis? So cosmicly good are these Dylusions!!!

I stamped my three images on Specialty Stamping Paper and then colored them in with Distress Markers, and cut them out.
I stamped Tim's swirly flourish stamp in Jet Black Archival, and inked the edges in Vintage Photo. White outlining, metal letters, and embellishments finish it off.
 

Supplies:

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!

  3. These are crazy good! The backgrounds are so rich and have such depth. Love the way you coloured and then embellished the stamped images. Even the atc holder is fun and unique. Lucky swappers! I really enjoy your writing style, too. Always fun to visit!

  4. Wowza!!! These are moving up to the Top 5 Anita projects in my book.... oh how I love what you've done with those awesome SA stamps. And the way you spelled out ART on each one, regardless of the focal letter = genius! These are truly gorgeous.
