ATC

I haven't made an ATC for ages, but after being stuck for ideas I decided to download a free image and background paper and have a go.

I tried out the Tim Holtz method of shading/colouring using a sponge and ink on a craft mat. It was fun once I got the hang of it.



I might use this on a card or a box in the future, but for now will keep it as a sample of the technique.

    Love this ATC particularly the way figures blend beautifully with the subtle background.

    This is truly beautiful! I love the gold around the edges and the muted tones. Thank you for sharing it with us.
