GIU Day 3


Hello Unies!!!
My projects today will be ATC cards.
Artist Trading Cards for people to share their art.  I love to use Dylusions Ink Sprays and my other go to is Alcohol Inks for the backgrounds.  I like to use the Dylusions on watercolor paper and for the Alcohol Inks,  I use Tim Holtz Alcohol Paper.


                                                   
My first project is Quinn Girl by Angie Blom

  • Watercolor Paper
  • Dylusions Ink Spray
  • Prima Flower
  • Recollections Crafting Tape
  • Washi Tape
  • Staedtler Colored Pencils
  • White Gelly Roll Pen
Picked a background paper and stamped Quinn Girl in Memento Tuxedo Black
Colored her in with Staedtler Colored Pencils
Used the White Gelly Roll Pen for the dots
Glued on the Prima Flower
Added the Recollection tape




My second project is A Beautiful Friendship

  • Blue scrap paper
  • Page from hymnal
  • Staedtler Colored Pencils
Simple but definitely would cheer up a friends day!!

Used a scrap of blue paper
Stamped on image in Memento Tuxedo Black
Stamped sentiment in Tuxedo Black
Cut out and adhered
Tore sheet of music and adhered

                                       


My third project is Maple Girl - Angie Girl

  • Watercolor Paper
  • Cut out Maple Girl
  • Recollections crafting tape
  • Staedtler Colored Pencils
Took watercolor paper and sprayed with Dylusions ink spray for background
Stamped Maple Girl with Tuxedo Black and colored with Staedtler Colored Pencils
Adhered to background paper
Chose two words from Recollections Washi tape

              
   
I am obsessed with making these background papers.  Each one looks totally different as you add more spray and also water if you add it to the watercolor paper.
                                              And there are SO MANY COLORS!!!

    Beautiful! I don't have any type of sprays but they really create a lovely background. May have to invest in some.

    I love using my ink sprays! I also like to use them to die cut flowers & other images. These ATC's are beautiful! It can be so hard to make a smaller project like this. You did a great job with them. I am trying to make a pocket letter with some, but I've only made three so far. lol
