Think Monday Think ATC: Diptych


This week's challenge on TMTA is to create a diptych, two ATCs with at least one image connecting the two but with each ATC looking good in its own right.
The background for this one was done starting with a music score with scraps of patterned paper stuck on. I then painted over it with a thin layer of gesso and inked it using Versacolour inks, then stamped the words. I then added mesh (I tried not to on this one, but the colour was so right I just HAD to use it) and lace. I then added the printed image, inked around the edges of the "Cherish" transparency and layered that over the bottom, then finally added the paper flowers and pearly hearts.
