Good Morning everyone
September has started so time for a new challenge over at Creative Artiste where the theme is anything goes MIXED MEDIA - we need at least 3 different mediums
I decided for a change to make a trio of ATC's. I used this fab frog stamp set from aall&create and what I had left on my desk. So we have a blue tree frog as I had scraps of this pale blue dotty paper. I had a piece of inked background with shades of green, blue and pink which made my bases.
Each atc is 3.5x2.5" in size
I started by cutting my inked background to size, I then inked through a circle stencil with pearl white dora paint and through a dotty stencil with glossy glaze. I added some text stamping in grey and a dotty mark stamp with green.
I stamped the lily pads onto lemon inked card which was on my desk but a good contrast to the blue. I stamped the dragonflies and waterlily onto white card and coloured with alcohol markers in pink - this picks up on the touches of pink in the background.
Stamped the words onto more of the dotty paper, cut out and arranged to finish. See below for each individual atc
You can make out the pearl stenciling better here. I used a yellow paint pen to add colour to the frogs spots.
Photos don't show it well, but the bottom left corner you can just make out the glossy glaze dots. I inked over them with stormy sky distress ink and the glaze resists it, also inked all the edges with the stormy sky.
For this happy chappy - by that expression he must be feeling croak😆, I torn a scrap of white card, inked blue and added to the bottom to 'ground' him & added a few doodles with a fine liner to give a water like effect. I had a die cut piece of foliage left over which i added behind him.
Heres the background before adding the extras, you can just make out in the light the shimmer of the white dora paint on the bigger stencilled circles and the glossy glaze with the small dotty stencil...also some of the ink sprayed background was pearlised so when the light hits them they shimmer and dance with the different finshes

Thank you for stopping by. Due to the vertigo and nausea Im not getting much serious crafting done so thankfully I was very well prepared with my DT projects, still hoping to get my 'new' eyes soon! So I apologise for not keeping up with comments on your projects but about 5mins of screen time is all i can manage before having to lie down again. Big hugs to you all Emmax
