Dream In Colour (2)

Hi everyone, today I would like to share a second set of ATC’s I made for this month’s Tracy Evans FB swap on the theme of Silhouettes. These are closely modelled on a set of ATC’s I made a year ago for a different swap using a different brand of stamps, but I thought the idea  adapted well to some of Tracy’s silhouette stamps. I have called this set “Dream In Colour II”.

I cut 4 pieces of watercolour paper, and on each one I used a rainbow coloured selection of Zig pens and a watercolour brush to drag out pools of colour to form dribbles. I then stamped a focal flower on each one using Nocturne VFC, a little background circle in Morning Mist and some teeny hearts for added interest. I stamped the sentiment onto separate snippets of black card, heat embossed in white, then cut out and attached. I added a few white Oosca highlights to the flowers and leaves, then to finish I edged each finished piece with black marker and matted onto standard ATC size pieces of black linen card stock cut from more snippets!

Here are some closeups.
