Magnetic Peeled Paint ATC

This is my second attempt at the peeling paint technique, and it turned out much better than my first.  I know I will use this technique again as it goes so well with vintage images.

I started out with a peeling paper technique for the base layer.  The green acrylic was added using the peeling paint technique.  I finger-painted the yellow acrylic and used an old credit card dipped in permanent ink to create the black border.

Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies:
Cardstock ATC base; Basic Grey decorative paper; text from an old book (background and word magnetic); vintage sheet music; laser copy of an old cabinet photo; green and yellow acrylic paint; Vaseline petroleum jelly; pumice stone distress ink; Golden gel medium; Stazon black ink; medium charcoal pencil.

Biology for Today Bird ATC

I ended up making several cards for this weekend's Bird-a-thon on ATCs for All, and really went to town once I pulled out my bird stamps.

I stamped this bird from Artistic Outpost on a page from my grandmother's 1930s Biology for Today textbook, and colored it with Prismacolor Premier pencils.  The background was shaded with distress inks.

I hope you had a great weekend!

Supplies:
Cardstock ATC base; stamps by Artistic Outpost (bird), Inkadinkado (postmark), Stamp Francisco (wavy lines part of postmark), and Wordsworth (letter B); 1930s vintage biology textbook page; Prismacolor Premier pencils; wild honey, bundled sage and black soot distress ink; Archival jet black ink.
