Tag Tuesday & Fun with ATCs

Tag Tuesday

Fun with ATCs

Here are my Tuesday challenges entries: Tag Tuesday (Butterflies) and Fun with ATCs (Wings). The tag was made of decorative paper I received from Frankie along with the stamp for the butterfly and the ribbon at the top and bottom and the face and asian character.

The ATC is also using something from Frankie (lotus flower). The dragonfly was stamped onto some paper I had colored with inks. The background for the ATC is scrunched magazine paper onto a sticky cardstock. I added embossing powders and mica sprays to get the different colors.

TMTA - top Hat

Think Monday Think ATCs' theme this week is Top Hat. The newspaper background is from Dezinaworld. The images are from Dover. I used a number of digital brushes by Annika von Holdt.

Art Creations Friday

Art Creations Friday has given us this delightful little boy to work with this week. My background is Dezinaworld; my butterflies are Dover. The original photo had a whip in this child's hand. I decided butterflies are much more appropriate.

So Artful

So Artful furnished us with this lovely Greek woman. I have used a background from Dezinaworld. The branches are freebie digital brushes made by Annika von Holdt.

One Stop Craft Challenge - Sentiments

Using a sentiment as the focus is the theme for One Stop Craft Challenge.

Background is from Dezinaworld.

Art Cards - Direct to Paper

Art Cards' theme is Direct to Paper. Dye inks were used on glossy cardstock. All images are Nicecrane.

Rainbow Lady - Shine/Sparkle

Shine and Sparkle is the theme for Cynthia's Rainbow Lady's Challenge Blog this week. I tried to show some of the glitter and embossing powders in this photo, but I'm afraid sparkle and shine just don't come through right.

The cardstock tag was sprayed with Moon Shadow emerald green. The base ink is walnut with emerald green mica. I also used a little homemade rose mist. The sides and center were wiped with a clear ink and embossed with a silver and clear powder. The stamps are by See D's and Purple Onion. The dark ink is Moon Shadow midnight copper. I also used gold glitter and hairspray on the interior of the tag.

In real life the whole tag has either glitter or embossing shine on it.

Theme Thursday - Vintage Men

These vintage men are my great-grandfather and one of his army buddies from the Civil War. The background is Dezinaworld. The building is from Dover. Visit Theme Thursday to see other vintage men entries.
