Today I have been making ATCoins...

OK - so my printer is almost out of ink - at the beginning of the year we wouldn't have thought twice about nipping out to get some! And I am on my last piece of white card until my order comes in the post ( cannot guarantee how long that will be...)

Fortunately in my bits and bobs folder I had some ATCoin backings ready to go.


Two general purpose ones from Oddball Art Co and half a dozen of Leigh's freebie - which I just had to colour with Copics.

So get ready for a few ATCoins - here are the first two...

The first one has a black base followed by a circle of Distress Ink background. I stamped this in black with a tree  - from Stampin' Up's Jolliest Time of the Year. I added a touch of green Copic and some tiny pearls.


The second one has a cream base with Tim Holtz leaves die cut from an alcohol ink background and layered up. I then added a black ring, three pearls and some sparkly leaves that I found in my sewing box.



I will add these to Leigh's Linky. 

Just to finish I thought this was quite festive for Christmas in July:



Happy Crafting!

    Love your ATC coins. A great idea to use previously made backgrounds. I hope you get your white card soon, if you have any metallic pens you could use black card. I wonder if you could sponge white acrylic paint onto black card?
