Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "A Walk Through Nature TE69" Thistles Artist Trading Card

 

This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day. I coated a white piece of card vry lightly with "Pebble Beach" Ranger Archival Ink.

I then used three shades of Ranger Archival Inks through the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Brick Wall ST9" stencil.  The colours I used are Shadow Grey, Tea Rose and Leaf Green.

Next, I used "Shadow Grey" Ranger Archival ink, through areas of the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Stripes ST12" stencil.

I then started the stamping uisng Versafine Clair "Morning MIst" grey ink to stamp the grid and the little dotty bits on the edge of the card.  These are part of the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "A Walk Through Nature TE69" stamp set.  I then stamped the thistles, which are also part of the same stamp set, using Versafine Clair "Pinecone" dark brown ink.

I edged the ATC in orange Posca Pen.  I then used a white and gold coloured gel pen on the thistle.  Finally adding a word sticker saying "stay curious".
