A set of Artist Trading Cards made for a swap over on UK Stampers Forum in the theme of 'Food & Drink' ...... I chose coffee as my theme.
The bases were cut to 2.5 x 3.5 from re-cycled food packaging. I then chose some colourful background paper and cut this to the same size. This was stamped with a couple of infill stamps in green and magenta Versafine Clair inks. I then added some coffee beans to the background.
The coffee cups were stamped in sepia Archival ink on white card and these were trimmed out.
The words were stamped in Versafine black ink on more white card which was heat embossed with clear embossing powder before trimming out.
The backgrounds were applied to the bases and the coffee cups were added and the words applied on foam pads.
The ATC's were finished by edging with dark brown Versamagic chalk ink .....

The bases were cut to 2 x 2ins square and I also cut some red card to the same size applying to the bases. I then die-cut some zig-zag edged circles from purple card and stamped this with a stitch stamp in Versafine black ink. I then die-cut some medallions from lime green card and again stamped these with a stitch stamp. I sewed a button with black twine to the centre of each of these and applied the medallions to the centre with hot melt glue.
The purple layer was then added off-centre to the bases.
The Twinchies were finished with a strip of Washi tape and some white & black Posca pen .... each was edged in purple Versamagic chalk ink ......
