These are a few silk flower and paper dragonfly ATCs that I've been creating.

I inked up the backgrounds using Adirondak inks and stamped script onto them and then layered printed text onto the cards before adding the final flower with jewel and dragonfly. Available for trade from my Flickr site.

These are a set of cards I created with my recently purchased stamps from the Ally Pally Show last month. They're by Paper Artsy, who produce such amazing stamps! This particular sheet is called "Architecture"

The buildings are so quirky that I decided to title this series "Quirky Town" - quite apt I thought :-D

I used Adirondak Ink Pads to colourize the background and spritzed them with water to get that blotchy effect. I then stamped and embossed swirls onto the background and added some trim to each card. The buildings I stamped and embossed onto paint swatches and cut them out and stuck them onto the background with foam pads to give them a little lift :-D Finally I edged each card with a Krylon pen.

Now they're all up for grabs and you don't even need a mortgage! - check them all out on my Flickr site and I'm happy to trade :-)
