Tuesday

Pure spirit





It was Theme Day last Friday at the Gauche Alchemy blog and the Design Team made ATCs (aka Artists Trading Cards). I did a little masking/inking (Tim Holtz mask & distress inks) on canvas paper for the background of my ATC, Pure Spirit, and embellished with bits from the various Gauche Alchemy Mixed Media Color Kits (my go-to add-ons for projects! :) 

This is my second ATC ever (I made 1 last year!) and it was definitely challenging for me. You have to create "art" on such a small space (2.5" x 3.5")...my cards are always 6" X 6"! *LOL*

Psst!!!! Have you entered into the drawing for my little Happy Box giveaway?
