I Love Paris ATC

Over the weekend I spent time at a copy shop making laser copies of some of my vintage ephemera.  Now I have more smear-free images and backgrounds to use in my artwork.

This artist trading card is a combination of those copies (the background and the girl), rubber stamps, and some midnight blue acrylic paint.  I love the amount of interest the peeling paint technique adds.

Have a great Monday!


Supplies:
Cardstock ATC base; copies of vintage notebook page and picture postcard; dusty concord distress ink; Stazon black ink; Eiffel Tower stamp by Artistic Outpost; Paris postmark by Tim Holtz; midnight blue acrylic paint; Vaseline petroleum jelly.
