Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Good Things Take Time TE60" pigeon Artist Trading Card

 

This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day.  I've used a piece of white card for the base, adding colour that was on my blending bushes through the Tracy Evans "Brick Wall ST9 stencil".

I used Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink to stamp the flower pot, which is part of the Tracy Evans "Blossoms Of Hope TE62" stamp set.  Using the same ink I added the text down the left hand side, which is part of the Tracy Evans "Good Things Take Time TE60" stamp set, stamped in second generation stamping.  I used the same stamp set and ink for stamping the pigeon too.

I then used Versafine Clair "Sand Dune" a sandy/beige coloured ink to stamp the special delivery postal mark, which is part of the Tracy Evans "Special Delivery TE64" stamp set.  I then coloured the pigeon and the flower pot by using a paint brush to apply Derwent Inktense pencil.  Finally, adding Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" and "Morning Mist" ink to the edges of the card.

Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "The Miracle Of A Flower TE59" Wisteria Card

I started with a white card and drew the window in pencil, shading the windows and adding demention with shading and a paper stump.  I then covered the exterior edges of the window frame with Pebeo Drawing Fluid to mask the area.  I then gave the rest of the card a wash of diluted "Antique Linen" Distress Oxide Ink. 

Once dry, I then used two shades of Ranger Archival ink:  Tea Rose and Shadow Grey, through the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Brick Wall ST9" stencil. I then used the Frisk Maskaway eraser to remove the drawing fluid.

I then started to stamp the wisteria.  There are two sizes of it on the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "The Miracle Of A Flower ST59" stamp set.  I used the following Versafine Clair inks:  Avocado, Shady Lane and Very Peri.  I then added extra colour using Derwent inktense pencils.

Using Versafine Clair "Morning MIst" grey ink, I stamped the text down the left hand side, using a stamp from the Tracy Evans set called "Create A Garden TE66".  I used the same ink to stamp the robin, part of the Tracy Evans "Love Grows Here TE65" stamp set, using Derwent Inktense pencils.

Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Numeral Cats TE36" Cats and the wall Artist Trading Card

Here's my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day.  I used a background from my stash, which I think had been made on a gel plate many years ago.

I positioned the Tracy Evans Boutique Design "Wall Stencil ST9" about a quarter of the way down the ATC.  Then used three shades of Ranger Archival Inks, using Watering Can, Orange Blossom and Fern Green. I then added extra depth of colour using Van Goch Pastel Pencils. I went round the edge of the card using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink and "Morning Mist" grey ink.

Using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink, I stamped the cat looking over the wall and the full size lady cat.  I highlighted areas with a white gel pen, adding extra whiskers to the male cat looking over the wall at the female.  Finally, I added some hearts between the two cats.  The hearts are part of the Tracy Evans "Quirky Birds TE10" stamp set, stamped in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink,

I stamped the frame again and used the extrernal area as a mask to protect the rest of the card, so that I could stamp within the fram.  I used Versafine Clair "Sand Dune" light brown ink to stamp the text, which is part of the Tracy Evans "Winter Delights TE23" stamp set.

Next, I used Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink to stamp the wild flowers within the frame.  The flowers are part of the Tracy Evans "Create a garden TE66" stamp set.  I then stamped the bird on the branch, from the same stamp set, using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.  I added touches of white gel pen, a black pastel pencil and a black fine liner pen for extra detail.
