I'd like to share an ATB stack that I made (Artist trading block) with you - its my entry for the current challenge over at Clarity where the theme is Wee Folk.
I started by using the 3 box die from eileen hull to cut the boxes from hardboard kindly given to me by a local picture framer. I made the boxes up then coloured the white edges with abandoned coral distress marker. Next I made up the background card using ditress stains and inks in mermaid lagoon, cracked pistachio and abandoned coral. Next I cut the squares for the ATB sides then applied ripe persimmon distress ink through Jo's bubbles stencil
Finally I added the wee folk stamps and some highlights in white pen.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Thankyou for popping by today - have a good Friday and enjoy that Friday feeling!
