Whilst sorting out my stamps for storage, I discovered a Paper Artsy plate that I bought second hand last year.
As we had just got back from a walk in the sunshine on the coast, I thought I would have a go using it.
I cut an ATC out of mountboard and applied and blended shades of yellow red and orange inks, to create 'heat'.
I stamped on the Sun image plate, then painted the 'petals' with Ecoline gold ink.
Once dry I used a Krylon 18kt gold pen on top give extra emphasis on the 'leaves' around the eye. To not only suggest the gold of the sunshine, but also of 'eyelashes'.
I finished it off by outlining the ATC with Krylon gold pen. It looks rather vibrant in the sunlight and really gleams and glitters with the golds.

This is one of the most fabulous and stunning and simple ATC's I've ever seen. I heart it! The gold touches are fabulous, I can feel the heat coming off of them and they really make the eye stand out.
