This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day. I used Versafine Clair "Pinecone", a dark brown coloured ink to stamp the heart branches, which are part of the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Framed Deliights TE58" stamp set. I used the same ink to stamp the bird house and sentiment, which is part of the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Feed Your Soul TE57" stamp set.
I then used Versafine Clair "Acorn" a mid brown coloured ink, to stamp the bird, which is part of the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "A Promise Of Tomorrow TE63" stamp set.
I then added the leaves to the heart wreath, using two shades of green Versafine Clair inks: Verdant and Avocado, applied with the end of a cotton bud. I drew in the branch for the bird to stand on and then used Van Goch Pastel pencils to add extra colour.
For the background colour of this card, I have used three shades of Distress Oxide Inks, which I spritzed to get different strengths of colour. The shades that I used are: Mermaid Lagoon, Prize Ribbon and Stormy Sky.
I used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp the dandelion which is part of the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Love Grows Here TE65" stamp set. I used teh same ink to stamp the wild flowers at the base of the card in first and second generation stamping.

This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day. I'm feeling a bit rubbish today, so not really feeling being creative. Instead I grabbed one of my pre-made backgrounds from my stash, where I have used Brusho on a gel plate. I then raided the collage. box and found a green net from a bag of limes, which I glued on to the ATC.
I also found a selection of stamped and fussy cut sea shells, which I think by memory are from a Stampin' Up stamp set and a swirly wreath. I glued the blue wreath and the sea shells into position over the netting, inked the edges using "Prize Ribbom" Distress Oxide Ink and added some matiching sequins and a word sitcker sayoing "live your life" to finish the card.
This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day. I have used a Brusho paint splattered background, stamping the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Dog Rose & Butterfly TE45" in Versafine Clair "Nocuturne" black ink and colouring with Van Goch Pastel Pencils and a shimmer of gold to the butterfly using "A Wink Of Stella".
Using a black fine liner pen, I added lines and dots round the edge of the card.
I've made another Artist Trading Card (ATC) today, this time using a brayer clean up sheet for the background in green and blue tones.

I then returned to the "acorn' brown ink pad to stamp the bird, which is part of the Tracy Evans"A Promise Of Tomorrow TE63" stamp set.
I coloured and shaded the ATC using Van Goch Posca Pens, a black fine liner and a white gel pen. I added some white and yellow dots of Posca Pen for flowers, then printed out and cut down a sentiment saying "...waiting for Dad!".
This is my Artist Trading Card (ATC) for the day. I used a piece of pale blue coloured card for the background.
