ATCs for a Private Trade

These ATCs are for a private trade with my friend, Miriam.  I used inventory tags (Collage Stuff) for the base.  I used a variety of different stencils from Tim Holtz and The Crafter's Workshop with Distress Oxide inks for the backgrounds.  The stamped images are from Unity Stamps.  They are colored with various pens including Copic Markers and Spica Glitter Pens.  I added various embellishments and Tim Holtz stickers.  Enjoy!

Decmber Artist Choice ATC Swap

The December swap at the Collage Stuff Yahoo Group is an artist choice ATC swap.  I created a background sheet using a vintage ledger page, acrylic paints and stencils.  I cut the sheet down to ATC size for each of the backgrounds.  I stamped the butterfly image on the same vintage ledger pages. Other items used include Asian character cards (available at Collage Stuff), Tim Holtz flashcards, Tim Holtz big chat stickers and jewels. Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

Christmas Tag Swap

At the Collage Stuff Yahoo Group, the November swap is a Christmas-themed tag swap.  I used number 8 tags.  The backgrounds are scrapbook papers, vintage ledger pages, and some gelli print scraps.  The Santa images are Victorian scrap available at Collage Stuff.  The song image is from Tumble Fish Studio at Mischief Circus.  The labels are from the "Tis the Season" collage sheet from Collage Stuff.  I added bling using the green jewels or Tim Holtz mirror stars.  The ribbons and charms are also available at Collage Stuff.  To finish off the tags, I glued a mica tile over each Santa image.  Thanks for stopping by to see my new tags!

Valentine's Day Card

Last night I decided I had to get my Valentine's Day cards done.  I mono-printed some background papers using stencils from Stencil Girl and The Crafter's Workshop with my gelli plate. The hearts are die cuts from a Sizzix set.  I added sequin hearts and a gold German scrap arrow available from Collage Stuff.  I added some bling with the hot pink jewels at the top and bottom.  The sentiment on the inside reads "happy valentine's day" except for my single friends, the sentiment reads "happy un valentine's day."  Thanks for coming by my blog!
