Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Sit and Reflect" Artist Trading Card



This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day.  I have used  four shades of Ranger Archival Inks through the Tracy Evans Boutiqe Designs "Distressed Grid ST10" stencil.  The colours I used are:  Prickly Pear, Vivid Chartreuse, Fern Green and Sky Blue inks.

I then started the stamping, first I stamped the tree which is part of the Tracy Evans "A Walk Through Nature TE69 Stamp Set, stamped in two shades of Versafine Clair green inks:  Shady Lane and Avocado.

Next using Versafine Clair "Acorn" brown ink, I stamped the bench, which is part of the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Sit and Reflect TE70" stamp set. I then stamped the wild flowers which are part of the Tracy Evans "Create a Garden TE66" stamp set.

I added the look of leaf cover to the tree using a cotton bud to apply two colours of Versafine Clair green ink.  I used Avocado and Shady Lane.  I then added more colour to the tree trunk and shading for the bench using Van Goch Pastel Pencils.

Finally, I added dots of Posca Pen to replicate flowers and a word sticker saying "life is good".
