A clean and simply sympathy card using a couple of Tracy Evans Boutique Designs stamp sets.
I used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink and "Morning Mist" grey ink to stamp the jar and the poppies. The jar and the poppies are part of the "TE26 Jar of wishes" stamp set. The grasses are part of the "TE50 On the wild side" stamp set. The sentiment is by Simon Says Stamp and is part of their "Tiny Words" stamp set, also stamped in "Nocturne" black ink.
This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day. I've gone for a very clean, clear and simple look with this one.
Using "Peacock Feathers" Distress Oxide Ink, I painted a line acorss the card, just below centre, I then used the same ink, diluted to lesser strengths to graduate the colour, almost back to white at the base.
I used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp the butterfly, wild flowers and sentiment. All are part of the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "On The Wild Side - TE50" stamp set. I then added painted colour to the butterfly using "Prize Ribbon" Distres Oxide Ink. Finally adding some black dots by the butterfly.
This is my morning Artist Trading Card (ATC), I think the muted colours reflect what is going on outside, the fog horn has been sounding all night and there is a thick mist/fog hanging in the air, obstructing my view of the sea and the breakwater.
The background design is a piece I made a while back using acrylic paint and bubble wrap to create the circles. I used Versafine Clair 'Nocturne" black ink and "Morning Mist" grey ink for the stamping of two Tracy Evans stamp sets. "Wilderness - TE52" for the deer and the sentiment and "On the wild side - TE50" for the trees.
