"Stampin' Up "Because I care..." hydrangea Artist Trading Card

 

This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day.  I covered a white background with "Old Paper" Distress Oxide Ink.  I stamped the Stampin' Up hydrangea using a stamp from theirn "Because I care" stamp set, using Versafine Clair "Avocado" green ink.  I used a small flower stamp from the same stamp set, using Versafine Clair "Dahlia Purple" I multi stamped the design in the background.

I used a cotton bud head tip to colour the flower head using the following shades of Versafine Clair Ink". Shady Lane, Dahlia Purple and Purple Delight.  I inked the edges of the card with Versafine Clair Shady Lane green ink and used a green Derwent Inktense pencil to colour the leaves.

I added extra detail using a yellow Posca Pen and a black fine liner pen, finally adding a word sticker staying "be awesome today".

Stampin' Up "Textured Notes" Artist Trading Card

This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day. For the base colour of this ATC, I have used two shades of Distress Oxide Ink, using Shabby Shutters and Pumice Stone.

I then used one of the basket weave stamps from the Stampin' Up "Textured Notes" stamp set with Versafine Clair "Grass Green" ink.  I then used Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" a mid green coloured ink to stamp the foliage, which is part of the same stamp set.

I inked the edges of the card using Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" ink and then used an orange and white Posca Pens to add dots to the background, drawing round the orange dots with a fine liner black pen.  Finally, I added a word sticker saying "let it go". I forgot to round the corners of the ATC before taking the photograph!  Silly Sam!
