And finally my third Atc for the PaperPlay swap. Over at Fun with Atc's this week they have the theme of texture. I used grunge paste through the rough diamond stencil and used lots of puff paint along the bottom edge. Once dried and puffed I painted it firstly with stone and then vanilla fresco paints. I used French roast around the outside and used olive green treasure gold to further accent the diamonds and puff paint.
I stamped the background in timber brown stazon using a script image. The image has been placed inside a flattened bottle top. The lock is a Sizzix die cut coloured with pewter treasure gold and stamped with a different script in black stazon. The words are cut from a sheet of sayings and mounted on kraft card.
I'm also entering this ATC into the Anything but a Card challenge.
