Lynne ......

Decided to make a matching set of Artist Trading Card & Artist Trading Coin made with Lynne Perrella stamps from PaperArtsy as a little gift for a crafty friend ......

I made the background on my Gelli plate with acrylic paints. For the ATC I cut a piece of background to 2.5 x 3.5 ins and highlighted some of the design with a white Posca pen and for the AT Coin I die-cut a circle to 2.5 ins diameter again highlighting with a Posca pen.

These backgrounds were then backed with re-cycled food packaging.

The ATC stamp was stamped twice and heat embossed with clear and with gold embossing powder.

The AT Coin was stamped and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Both images were trimmed out and coloured with washes made with Impress and Distress ink washes.

The images were then stuck in place with elements of the gold embossed image added to both. Some of the circles were highlighted with Glossy Accents. Each of the items was edged in white pen.

I then added two small die-cut stars on foam pads to each which had previously been covered with Tim Holtz Tissue tape. The printed words were added to finish the two items ......
