Non Paper ATC

This challenge with the Stampers Corner Yahoo Group was to make a NonPaper ATC. I used grungeboard and stamped on it with acrylic paint using a Stampers Anonymous stamp. The important thing to remember if you do stamp with acrylic paint, gesso or gel medium is to wash your stamp off ASAP otherwise you might ruin it since the "stuff" will dry and stick to it forever. After the paint was dry I used Ranger Distress Inks then wiped off the part that was on the paint since it acts as a resist. The big embellishment is from K&Co Life's Journey series. The next step was to use a clear tag by Heidi Swapp. I colored the back of it with a silver Galaxy Marker. They don't bleed up on acrylic surfaces like other markers. I stamped on the front using StazOn with a stamp by Inque and secured it to the ATC using some silver mini ric-rac and then outlined the ATC with a Krylon marker.

Until my next post,
