Hobby Art Stamps "The Holly & The Ivy CS137D" Artist Trading Card



This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day.  I used a piece of pale blue card for the base, using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink to stamp the holly and berries, which is part of a stamp set by Hobby Art Ltd called "The Holly & The Ivy CS137D".

I painted the holly using several shades of Distress Oxide Inks.  The colours I used in order are: Crushed Olive, Mowed Lawn, Rustic Wilderness and Lucky Clover.  I used "Festive Berries" Distress Oxide Ink for the berries.

I edged the ATC in "Blueprint Sketch" Distress Oxide Ink.  Then added some highlights to the leaves and berries using a white gel pen.  I added shadow to the leaves using a pencil and a paper stub.

Finally, I used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp "peace & joy", which is part of the Funky Fossil Designs "Stripped Back Christmas Sentiments" stamp set.
