The themes for the February swap were music and resist. Here are my creations:
Music
I started off by covering an atc in music tissue paper. I then inked over the paper using broken china distress ink.
The Elvis image was stamped in Archival ink, cut out and mounted to the atc.
I then found words to make up the title of an Elvis track and added these to finish the atc.
Resist
I kept this atc very simple.
I stamped the flower image directly onto the atc and embossed it using white powder.
I then did a very quick wash of ink over the embossing and allowed this to dry.
Once dry I gently rubbed over the image using a baby wipe which made the white image 'pop' more.
I stamped a sentiment in Archival ink and added a few sequins to finish.
I had great fun making my atcs this month.
Thanks for looking.....
Very effective.....I never think to do resist technique!
