1920's ATC Card

I think this is my favorite Artist Trading Card as of yet! I really had fun with this Decade. Many events and things happened around that time so I tried to capture what I could to reflect it. The Card is 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches.
I used:
2 images I found on the internet and printed them out on glossy paper.
I went to wordle.com and made a word collage for this. It ended up not working out the way I wanted it to, but I like this one much more. So I cut them out and placed them.
Liquid Pearls in White. (For her jewelry)
I used Burgundy and Christmas Red stickles.
Silver, and Warm Red catseye ink for shading.
Zig Pen Glue
Cream, White, and Burgundy cardstock.

"This Is The Life" Beach Theme ATC Card

Here is another Artist Trading Card! It is 3 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches big. This is made with an Inkadinkado Stamp and StazOn Jet Black ink. I colored it in with my prismacolor pencils and used green stickles and yellow stickles. I used Navy cardstock for the background. It just makes me think of a relaxing day by the beach, reading a book! Love it!

"Pooh Jumps For Joy" Inchie

Here is an inchie I made for my Daughter's Disney swap on the cricut board. I used 3 layers of cardstock, and found a neat watercolor picture to put in the background. I used copper glimmer mist over the pooh color paper. I colored his shirt with a marker. You can see the sparkle through the red of his shirt. He is from a punch my daughter had. I used red glitz stickles for the dots on the frame. Inchie: 1 inch work of art
