May ATC 2017

Hey Everyone. I am back again to share with you another ATC.

Slow and Steady...thats how Im going to get my posting back on track, but prevent from injuring my fingers, hand and wrist. It feels so good to be back even if its only in a small capacity right now.

A lot of the ladies in the trading group that I am part of have already received their May ATCs, so I thought that it was a good time to share them with you!

I initially wanted to do something that was flat and pretty one dimensional, however I just couldn't do it! I love how it turned out, and love the wording! In the past I have been doing the same pretty much all the same ATC but this time I thought that I would change it up and do a variety of colours to keep things interesting. I am very happy how they turned out...and the biggest shocker of all no gems or doodlebug sprinkles.

Supplies Used

Paper Trimmer - used to cut the sentiment and sentiment mat, and the ATC base

Tim Holtz Scissors - used to cut the ribbon on the front of these ATCs

Mono Multi Glue - used to attach the sentiment to the coloured paper and to the ATCs

Acrylic Block - used to attach the sentiment and the image to in order to stamp both

Water Brush - used to blend and spread out the colours on the images

Black MFT Ink - the ink used to stamp the sentiment and the image in

Stamping Bella - Flower for a True Friend - image used on the front of these ATCs

"The Earth laughs in flowers" - sentiment used on the card front (company who's stamp it is no longer exists, couldn't find a similar stamp to link to)

Zig Clean Colour Real Brush - used to colour the images with

Wink of Stella (Clear) - used to add some shimmer to the flowers

Ribbon - used on front of the ATC to embellish a bit

White Cardstock - used for the card base and to stamp the image and sentiment onto

Coloured Paper - used to create a mat for the sentiment (these are from my scrap box so unfortunately I don't have a source for these)

Thank you for stopping by. Ill be back soon with another card to share with you.

About Me

My name is Amanda and I am 27 years old. I first began scrapbooking pages and trying to learn/teach my way through it. I then decided to join a local crop night and learned how to put together various page layouts and how to use different tools and techniques. I then moved away to school. I searched for a stress release while I was away and stumbled upon Under Construction Stamps, and the owner (who now is basically my 2nd mom) taught me tons. I took card making classes, book classes, etc and LOVED every minute of it. 2009 was when I was first introduced to wood mount rubber stamps, and from there it became a hobby and an addiction in a sense. I have been making cards to give to family and friends since 2009 and recently I have been making a lot of commission cards for friends, family and people in the public. I love what I do and this blog is a way of helping to inspire others as well as showing off incredible stamp images from some very talented and incredible designers.
