The Stampman ATC swap

Hi all

Last day of playing until the weekend as I am back at work tomorrow boohoo!
The Stampman has opened up it's ATC swap, this first swaps theme is "wings". It is ages and ages since I made ATC's so I enjoyed making these although my hands are full of ink!!

Basically the inks are the same on all 3, just messed with them in different ways even using bubble wrap. I have used peeled paint and faded jeans distress inks, the red is Adirondack in Cranberry. I used clear Rangers embossing powder and gloss card. I will list the stamps at the bottom of this post.



I am really happy with how summery the colours turned out and I just love butterflies fluttering about the garden, as the theme over on this months Sir Stampalot Challenge is "Lazy Days of Summer" I thought this would be perfect and have you seen the FABBY prize for this months winner??

The quote is one of my favourite ones from Charles Dickens "I only ask to be free. The butterflies are free."

The stamps used are:
PaperArtsy MN27, Artemio - Butterfly Silhouettes, Basic Grey - flutter

Sweet Pea Stamps ATC

Hi all

I haven't made an ATC for ages and had such fun doing this one! These stamps are the perfect size for making ATC's with! The one I have used is Ching-Chou Kuik's
"Thousand Years Waiting" from the only UK stockistCrafts and Me



The Sweet Pea customer challenge is to make an ATC following this criteria:

1. Using ONLY Sweet Pea Stamps,
2. Create an ATC (2.5" x 3.5") Card.
3. Use Purple and Pink.
4. Include an 'Odd' Embellishment.
Upload and add the link to your blog here during the week of April 11-17.


The "odd" thing I have used is a rivet from a broken button off my sons Carbrini jeans, no I didn't break it on purpose LOL!

Sweet Pea stamps are having a Blog Hop for their one year celebration which will take place on 20th April.

I coloured the image in using promarkers.
