First ATC
It's time that I started working in miniature to try new things so I figured I would try my first ATC which stands for artist trading card. A little background-ATCs are traded between artists. They are 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 cards using any material that really comes to the artist's mind. They are labeled on the back with the artist's information. The important thing is that they are never sold-just created for the sake of art and appreciated by another artist. Since this is my first one, I will keep it. Materials used are Antiquities Embossing Powder, Acrylic Paint Dabbers, and Perfect Pearls by Ranger Industries. Stamps by Inkadinkado. Gems are by an unknown manufacturer.

Embossed and Water Colored Card
I love this card! I embossed it in black then used water color pencils and markers. I was going for a warm antique look. I bought a t-shirt with this same picture ages ago not knowing it was also a stamp! I just had to have it-loving music and all. Stamp is House Mouse by Stampabilities. If you try this, make sure you use water color paper. It makes a difference.
