An ATC for “Tag-along and ATC’s”
I messed around for hours a while until I decided to use a scrap of grapefruit card
that was almost the exact size for an ATC, it just needed slight trimming one side.
I used a beautiful but long retired SU stamp (Soft Seedlings)for the leaf background.
The A&C Acorn Collage set had the words, and I used the seed heads from the SU set,
stamped using three coloured inks, then fussy cut.
I edged the sides of the words with a blend pen, maybe I should have done the same on the main card?
Any tips welcome, as I am very much a novice in this area.
I’m taking this to:
Tag-along (and ATC’s) autumn challenge
Thanks for taking the time to visit, and I really appreciate your comments
Take care and see you soon

Wow - this little ATC is brimming with autumn goodness. Love it!
ReplyDeleteAs far as edging the main card goes - it would tie in nicely with the edged words if you added it. I always think coloured edging looks nice. I often use a gold calligraphy pen with a chisel tip.
Be careful when using pens to edge the ATC with - it’s easy to slip and add a pen streak to the front of the ATC (ask me how I know!).🙄 Xxx
Funny you should say that…. I did it when urgently finishing a card 😩, had to quickly hide it 😳😂
DeleteIt seems you're enjoying this collage idea and this is a great ATC with an autumnal feel. Impressive fussy cutting too, had to take a closer look to check if they were actual winged seeds😊.
