ATC ~ Savour The Journey

I love mixed media art, love playing with inks and paints and what-nots. This is a result of all that and a whole bunch more. The plus point? I had LOADS of fun. Can't wait to play some more!





Edges are inked with Mica Magic inkpads - love the gorgeous sheen. Before that a whole 'mess' of other stuff happened. The butterfly was stamped and embossed at certain areas for the extra texture. Picked up the wonderful tip of running paper through those good ol' tag makers from Tim Holtz's blog and loved how it turned out.




Supplies - Paper: water colour paper, text paper, Fancy Pants pp; Stamps: Autumn Leaves, Inkadinkado; Inks: Nick Bantock Reinkers, Mica Magic Inkpads, Colorbox Cat's Eye Chalk Inkpads, Distress Inkpads; Paints: Making Memories; Others: 3D adhesives, Modge Podge, SnC Embossing Powder, Dymo Tag Maker.

I love all the techniques here. I havent used Mica yet and now wished that I had bought some when I saw it. Never mind - will do next. Love the DYMO going thru the pp too - nice effects on the alphas. Will def try that - thanks for the inspiration...
