Bold Blooms by Helen Chilton

I'm using some Tim Holtz stamps this week to make some ATCs.

These are some of his foam designs:

I started by stamping onto glossy card in Distress Ink.

Then I added blue stamping...

...and yellow:

To finish, and just knock it back a bit,  I stamped some leaves in grey:

You can then add the flowers and leaves in black.

Make it pop with a white pen:

Once I'd made the ATCs I wanted to put them in something, so made a simple booklet:

Flip over and fold up the flaps:

Line with 13Arts paper.

I finished it off by stencilling in black paste on a strip of the leftover background:

Then added brads and rub-on text.
