These are my ATCs for The Stamp Man ATC Swap. Well, three of them are anyway. I got a bit carried away and made a a couple of extras. This month's theme is "wings".
Unfortunately the photos don't show up the shimmeriness (is that a word?)
I made the background using Starburst Sprays, with Papermania Vinyls as masks.
I then stamped the backgrounds in distress inks and the flowers in black archival ink. I also stamped the dragonflies directly onto the ATCs because I am lazy and didn't want to cut out the legs. (Well, I tried, but they kept falling off!)
Next, I stamped the dragonflies onto white card using black archival ink and coloured them with watercolour pencils. I added highlights using white and glitter gel pens. I stamped the wings separately onto some shimmery cellophane , cut them out and stuck them on. I attached the dragonflies to the ATCs, curved the wings and put some foam pads under the wings for a 3D effect.
