Artist Trading Card Daily - 47.2

Artist Trading Card Daily – 47

I was genuinely shocked the other day when I checked my blog stats and found out that this blog was viewed over 100,000 times in January!

This ATC is therefore dedicated to all of you that have taken the time to visit, view and comment on my creations.

Artist Trading Card Daily - 47.1

This creation was a mixture of old and new.

The floral design was part of a set from Tonic Studios clear stamps. This I had stamped and coloured a long time ago and been assigned to the ā€œcould come in useful some dayā€ pile.

When stamped and coloured it I used cream coloured cardstock and Spectrum Noir pens.

I cropped it down to ATC size and then added a little shading with some distress ink – to give it the aged look as it had been hanging on for so long!

I then added some faux stitching around the edge with a Pigma Micron pen. I don’t really know why I did this, I just thought that it might be a nice touch.

To finish, I added a sentiment that I had got in a free set from Clearly Besotted stamps and Simply Cards and Papercraft Magazine.

  2. Hi John

    Awwww, what a nice guy you are- a real gentleman!

    I’m not surprised, what you are doing is an amazing challenge, it’s not got me making ATCs, but it is making me begin to use the pile of stash I’ve accumulated! At th mo it’s the MDF I’ve had hanging around added to the G45 I’ve had hanging around. I’m also getting in the habit of stamping a few bits out when I’m at the table too so you are having a positive influence on me!

    I hope more and more people stop in to look

    Hugs

  5. I’m not realy sure why you are so surprised. You’re a very popular and talented chap. Like an earlier poster I don’t follow blogs as a rule. But I visit yours on almost a daily basis. You’ve given me the courage to experiment with my scan’n’cut and chameleons. Thank you. Xxx

  6. Wow that is a lot of hits. Lovely picture. I laughed at the ‘could come in useful pile’ I have a ‘could come in useful set of drawers over flowing’ :)

  7. From the numbers now checking out your blog it looks like it’s not just me that you’ve got hooked! Congratulations and many thanks for yet another beautiful ATC, and for dedicating it to your followers. Your colouring is really clever. I’m enjoying having another attempt at colouring after buying the Secret Garden book that you used. X

  10. I am sure that your following will only continue to grow. I am not a great blog follower by any means but I have been very faithful about keeping up with your 365 ATC project. You are such an inspiration whether you are making some complex construction or when you are doing a simple ATC design.
