Because of this hop and the severe restrictions of lockdown in Melbourne, I have been trying to find myself different projects every day just to keep me going!
I am writing this on September 24th - Day 49 of Leigh's hop - but as I am in Australia I may be a little ahead... but here are today's makes:
I have been doing lots of mixed media today - almost completed two journal pages and done these ATCs.
Remember the ATCs I made the other day (about a week ago)?
I explained the background then - by the way Angela, I used quarter inch wide washi as my masking tape.
Any way I still had half a dozen backgrounds left, attached to silver card.
This time I printed some images on greaseproof paper - I attached an A4 piece to a piece of card with washi so it would run through the printer. This greaseproof is like heavy tissue on one side, shiny on the other. I printed on the tissue side and glued the shiny side down with gel medium when I had cut them out. The images I used are from Oddball Art Co (CCC November Exclusive Set and CCC78 - Unicorn Spider)
Next I sprayed all 6 ATCs with Dylusions Lemon Zest Ink Spray, following this up with green Neon Paint.
When these layers had dried I added paint pen, ink and glossy accents.
By the way all these ATCs are now under my heavy squashing book in the hopes that they will flatten out.
Happy Crafting!
Fabulous and so much more, hugs, Lori m
ReplyDeleteFabulous background makes for your ATCs Susan!

These are too terrific! I love them! Such fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks for that info, my tape was at least half inch! The lemon and green does add a touch of spookiness, great ATC’s.
ReplyDeleteThose are all so wicked cool, the acid green is perfect for that spider!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to have you playing in my Stay Crafty @ Home blog hop!
Stay Safe!
