Spring .......

Here is a set of Artist Trading Cards made for a swap on UK Stampers Forum .....

The bases were cut to 2.5 x 3.5 inches from re-cycled food packaging. these were then covered with a background made on the Gelli plate with alcohol inks, acrylic paints and a stencil. A strip of torn green striped Washi tape was added to ground the trees.

I then stamped the trees, bird, flower and butterfly (Sizzix) and die cut these with the matching dies. I used Copic markers to colour the embellishments which were stuck in place as shown.

The words was stamped in Versafine black ink and trimmed and edged with green Versamagic chalk ink. The ATC's were also edged in the same ink to finish .....
