Tracy Evans "Feed Your Soul TE57" Pansy and Fern Artist Trading Card



This is my second Artist Trading Card (ATC) using the fabulous pansy stamp from Tracy Evans Boutique Designs.

In the background, I used some lilac/purple coloured ink left on my blending brush through the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Tiles SS37 Stencil".  Deliberately making the colour heavier fading the colour out to the left and the top of the card.

Using Versafine Clair "Avocado" green ink, I stamped the ferns by Tracy Evans "Fern TE3" stamp set.  On a white piece of card, using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink, I stamped the pansy, which is part of the Tracy Evans "Feed Your Soul - TE57" stamp set.  I coloured the pansy with Derwent Inktense water colour pencils, fussy cut the shape and glued into position.  Finally, I added three dots of white Ranger Enamel Accents and some touches of a black fine liner pen.

Next, I stamped the toadstools, part of the Tracy Evans "On the wild side TE50" stamp set, using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink.  I stamped the grasses/wild flowers from the same stamp set using Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink.  

I used Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" ink to create the landscape and to darken the edges of the card.  to colour the ATC, I used a red Posca Pen, a white and gold coloured gel pens and a black fine liner pen, I also used touches of Van Goch Pastel Pencils too.

Tracy Evans "Feed Your Soul - TE57" Birdhouse Artist Trading Card



This is my last Artist Trading Card (ATC), make of the day. I used a cream coloured piece of card for the background, applying Versafine Clair "Sand Dune" ink through the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Tiles SS37" stencil, I deliberately only coloured two thirds of the stencil so that the left hand side of the card was less cluttered.

Using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink, I stamped the trees and birdhouse, which are part of the Tracy Evans "Feed Your Soul - TE57" stamp set.  I stamped the birdhouse again on white card.  I used a mixture of Van Goch Pastel Pencils and a black fine liner pen to colour the trees and the birdhouse.  I fussy cut the bird house on the white card and glued it into position.  Finally, `i added a little bird, which is part of the Tracy Evans "A Promise Of Tomorrow - TE63" stamp set, stamped in Versaifne Clair "Portabello" brown ink, with added touches of pastel pencil
