Tim Holtz "Idea-ology" "Pocket Card "David Niven" Artist Trading Card


 

This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day.  I have used pieces of Tim Holtz Idea-ology "Pocket cards" to make uo the background for this ATC.  I have cut and cropped a photo of David Niven from the book I found in the charity shop called "The Films of David Niven" and glued it into position on the card.

I then used the stencil from the Tim Holtz / Stampers Anonymous layering stencil "THMM173, Christmas Stamp & stencil set" with "Strawberry" red Versafine Clair ink, to create red polka dots.  I then circled these with a gold coloured gel pen.

I added colour to the photo of the couple using "Victorian Velvet" Distress Oxide Inks for the faces and "Candied Apple" Distress Oxide Ink for the lips.  I edged the card in "Peeled Paint" Distress Oxide Ink and then the very outer edge in "Strawberry" red Versafine Clair Ink.  

Finally adding a Tim Holtz "Idea-ology" word sticker saying "It's always the small pieces, that make the big picture".
