Unusual Holiday ATC

This ATC was for the Stampers Corner Yahoo group. I picked Pi Day on March 14th which is also the birthday of Albert Einstein. I started by stamping 3.14 (the beginning of pi - the diameter of a circle) again and again with Ranger Distress Inks and embossing with clear powder. I then embossed the paper with a Cuttlebug folder and embossed the raised areas in clear. I sprayed some gold Glimmer Mist and then added a bit of dry Caran D'Ache crayon to bring out the linen texture of the paper. I added two stamps by Stamp Camp of Einstein and one of his quotes. The final touch is a Pi symbol that I printed backwards and made into a gel medium transfer.

Giving Credit where it is due

A while back I had a post of the page I submitted for the Yahoo Mixed Media Art Friends that I belong to. I had seen a video that gave me inspiration but couldn't remember who did it. It bothered me and I kept searching using different terms and FINALLY found the source. Jennifer McGuire made this post and although I modified it using recycled cardboard instead of Grungeboard and Gel Medium rather than Mod Podge the concept was basically the same. Take a look at Jennifer's video and maybe you too will be inspired to make something fun.

Until my next post,
