The challenge 2 week1 at So Artful challenge blog is to use the golden brown background supplied. Heres mine.. The words which don't show up very well in the scan say..You are my everything.
The theme this week at Theme Thursday is Vintage Valentine. For the first ATC I used some of the leftover gesso background from the Wednesday stamper challenge.I printed the image onto a transparency and attached it with more gesso. The second one I did just because I loved the image.I used the same background and printed the image on a sticky backed vellum.
I applied the gesso to water colour paper with a credit card to make it smooth and while it was still wet stamped into it with a crackle background stamp.I dried it with the heat gun because I'm impatient and then rubbed in treasure gold rub and buff. I printed the mother and child image on sticky back transparency .
Challenge 7 at Art Creations Friday was to use their beautiful background. The Tuesday challenge at Created By Hand was flourishes..I have combined the two on an ATC canvas..
