Friday and the weekend is ... close!

Morning readers,

I've a make to share with you today ... this Artist Trading Card managed to use up numerous snippets which had been sitting in the snippet box for far too long ... AND some ribbon, something I seldom use but recently rediscovered! It's been like stash shopping all over again!

My ATC, measuring just 3½" x 2½"

Materials used:

  • ATC blank
  • Snippets of card in B&W designer from Funky Fossil, white, yellow and orange
  • Memory Box "script" image (E453 - pre 2016) stamped multiple times using Versafine Clair morning mist ink
  • Memory Box flower (C430 - pre 2016) stamped using Versafine Clair nocturne ink, before matting on first orange then yellow snippets
  • Michaels citrus circles grosgrain ribbon, attached to my ATC front using double sided tape
  • Crystal stickles to give my ATC a bit of sparkle

I'll be entering the above make for the following challenges:-

  1. We Love Stamping - April challenge - FAVOURITE STAMP + (optional) ADD SOME RIBBON .... I love this script and floral stamp together
  2. Lets Create - challenge No. 218 - ANYTHING GOES + (optional) ADD FLOWERS

A great ATC from bits and pieces in your Snippets collection. Going through crafty stuff from eons ago is fun and does feel as if you might be using something newly acquired 🤣🤣. Have a good weekend.

Another pretty ATC Kathy and the monochrome background and flower with just that bit of colour in the two layered mats and also the complementary ribbon just lifts the whole thing beautifully...love the bit of sparkle on the flower too. x
