Colour your World by Donna Gray

Hi
everyone,
Donna
here today with a duo of ATC’s for you using some of the yummy new That’s
Crafty! clear stamps.
What I did:
I
used 2 greyboard ATC’s both of which I covered with a coat of That’s Crafty! Multi Surface Paints.
For
the ‘paintbrushes’ ATC I stamped the image on a piece of Strathmore Mixed Media Paper and coloured in with a selection of diluted Distress Markers, cutting
into the ‘brush heads’ to create texture, I then covered the ‘jar’ with a thin
layer of DecoArt Liquid Glass to add dimension to it. I stamped the sentiments
with black Archival ink and the ‘paint splats’ were achieved by using various
colours of ink pads and paints.
I
then mounted the image on to a couple of foam pads to add a little further
dimension to it.
For
the ‘heart’ ATC I used a That’s Crafty! MDF heart, which I covered with a layer
of DecoArt Crackle Paste and set aside to dry. From my ever expanding box of
dried natural treasures I used the dried flower and applied a little glue to
the back of it and adhered it to the heart. I then used some raffia to wrap
around the heart; some sequins and white enamel dots then added the sentiment
to the ATC.
I
mounted both the ATCs’ onto black card and then white cardstock so I was able
to display it better. It really is amazing just how much you can fit onto an
ATC isn’t it.
Supplies Used:
Hope
you like it

Lovely to see these creations again,dear Donna,- I love how you used your dried flower on top of the beautiful crackled heart , and the dots are perfect round and frame it so wonderful. The artist palette you created on the other ATC you really made live , by cutting into the brushes ,making them look even more old, and used . Must look amazing with the liquid glass on the jar , and Lynne`s Affirmations are so lovely, also here!!

These are both really gorgeous Donna and love the way the jar of brushes really pops on your artist ATC. The flower embellishment on the heart one is an amazing finishing touch too.

ReplyDeletefab ATC's Donna, the sentiments really do paint a bigger picture for art on a smaller scale. They look incredible framed upon the card, great idea.
