Hello everyone, I don't even want to say it out (in case it disappears again!!) but I feel like my mojo returned for the time being and I decided to make an Artist Trading card as I really missed making them and adding to my small but growing collection, so I decided to follow the theme at the Tag-Along challenge which is "include numbers". And since spring is currently on my mind, I chose Tracy Evans' beautiful stamp set Nature's Beauty TE031 for the focal point. I know it will still be a while before my snowdrops are blooming in the garden, but I'm hoping for a mild February so that they appear soon :)
I started out with a piece of cardstock from my box of extra backgrounds where
I had previously used the Grid Texture
stamp by Darkroom Door and rust Distress ink along with some spatter of olive
green Distress ink. I thought this was a great starting point for my
ATC.
On this backgorund I used Tracy Evans' for Aall and Create stamp
Art Notes with Versafine Clair
Avocado ink. Using the same Art Notes
stamp I stamped some of the numbers uisng
Versafine Onyx ink. On the left edge I
used a stamp from Tracy Evans' set
Berries. As mentioned, the Snowdrops are from the set Nature's Beauty along with the
word "Snowdrop". I used the stapler for a simple "embellishment".

Liebe Ellie,
ReplyDeleteich mag die Schneeglöckchen so gerne, aber nicht nur deswegen gefällt mir Deine ATC wahnsinnig gut.
Im Garten habe ich schon die ersten Triebe und auch Blüten entdeckt, aber seit Dienstag sind sie wieder unter einer geschlossenen Schneedecke.
In diesem Sinne ...
Winterliche Grüße

That is very pretty! I have a stack of new supplies I've been trying to work myself up into using and playing with.
ReplyDeleteWunderschön ist Dein ATC!!! Und farblich noch nicht so 'aufdringlich', denn noch haben wir Winter (den ich sehr genieße), aber ein bisschen ist da auch schon die Vorfreude auf den Frühling und die schönen Schneeglöckchen.

This is a very sweet ATC, I used to create them and leave them in random places for strangers to find. I would always wonder what the finder would think of them. Thanks for joining us at The Paper Funday and Beautiful Challenges. Best of luck in the draw.
