Regal Birds ATC's & Envelopes

 Inspiration for these two"Regal Bird"artist trading cards came from Gallery Cat @ Etsy. I think the birds are beautiful!💗  I collaged them onto kraft card stock and distressed everything with coffee archival ink. Adding some white gelly pen here and there to spiff them up even more. Embellishing with pink gems and some lace ribbon.

Slipping them into their plastic sleeves and atc envelopes- ready to send to swap partner!

Halloween ATC

A artist trading card I made using Tim Holtz stamps with SSS intense black ink. The kraft atc blanks I bought are too thin for my liking so I covered the atc on both sides with designer paper and colored over with rusty hinge distress paint and walnut stain. Black soot was used to distress and outline atc. Words are from a Halloween book.

 Something Wicked this Way Comes- this Halloween!
