Oh So Lovely ATC



No, I'm not tooting my own horn. It's the name of the stamp set, silly :)

Supplies (all Stampin' Up!):
Stamps: Oh So Lovely
Ink: Jet Black Staz-On, Always Artichoke, Ruby Red, Bravo Burgundy
Paper: Ivory Naturals, Mellow Moss, So Saffon, Always Artichoke
Accessories: Cranberry Stitched Ribbon, Glassy Glaze Enamel, paper piercer, hodgepodge hardware, edge distressor, aqua painter

I've never done an ATC before (artist trading card). Very fun! If you're not familiar with them, they're just ways artists exchange their work and share tiny bits of themselves. The only "rule" is size: 2 1/2" x 3 1/2." It makes for a fun-size little canvas, yet plenty of room for all your favorite techniques and embellishments.

Try one, then post a link to yours in the comments section of this post. If you already make these, post a link too. I'd love to see what you've done.

[Updated to add: This ATC uses the Cracked Glass technique, which is this week's technique challenge on Splitcoast. There's a great tutorial here.]
