ATC's

Yes, I have more ATC's to post.  I hope you like them or at least can get some ideas from them to make your own.

 Left - The girl is mounted behind a slide mount .  It's hard to tell from the photo but I ran some copper ink around the edge of the slide mount.  I distressed the word "Inspire" with some sandpaper so the white background would show through and the letters would stand out.  Middle - The top butterfly is a transparency and the pink one is a plastic sparkly hair clip.  Right - The Eifel Tower is a transparency and I coiled some gold wire around the photo.

Left - The burgundy strip is velvet.  Middle - old antique button, handmade red mulberry paper.  The cream paper is so lovely in real life.  The entire page is stitched with a swirly pattern.  Right - The girl picture is mounted onto corrugated cardboard over which I ran some white paint.  The ribbon was originally bright orange.  I soaked it in a walnut ink solution and love the colour it tunred out.  

 Left - I used eyelets at the top of the card.  Middle - The wings and face were stamped and cut out, the circle is a metal edged circular tag and I used copper embossing powder on the edges.  I also used the same powder on the top right hand part of the card.  Some wire and a corrugated cardboard crown finish it off.  Right - The crown is cut from so gold metal shim.

Images and paper from magazines were used on these three ATC's.  For the girl in the middle ATC, I cut her out of an old book page and antiqued the paper with some chalks. Then I just cut the dress out of some scrapbooking paper. 

I love to use old book pages for flowers and birds etc.
