Spirited Insight ATC


Here's another ATC I have called 'Spirited Insight' !  The base is white cardstock cut to size.  All stamps used are Invoke Arts and I stamped the eyes in onyz black Versafine three times, the last time without re-inking the stamp to provide a greyed out image.

The card was they sprayed with winter jasmine gold Moonglow Starburst Stain and allowed to dry.  Next the non-stick craftmat was inked with milled lavender and scattered straw Distress Ink and spritzed with water before rubbing the card face down in the ink.  This was done a couple of times and dried with the heat gun in between.  The spirit was stamped with onyx black Versafine and the numbers were stamped once in vintage sepia Versafine and once in Brilliance sunflower yellow ink (top right).  The edges were coloured with Memento rich cocoa ink applied with cut'n'dry foam to finish.

Liking the colourtones achieved with the inks on the background on this one.
