July ATC: Navy Blue/Holidays

 The prompt for the July ATC swap over on Clarity Crafts Mini Makes and ATCs was Navy Blue/Holidays. This is the ATC that I made for my swap partner.

Add the Clarity ATC stamp onto the back of a piece of ATC sized Antarctica designer card in Cobalt Archival ink. Add the name of the artist using one of the bespoke stamp sets and a date stamp in Cobalt Blue Archival ink. Add the title and edition using a dark blue Bruynzeel fine liner.

Add the picnic stamp from Linda Williams' In the Garden Lemon Tree stamp set to a piece of 2" x 3" stencil card in Jet Black Archival ink.

Mask up the image.

Add clouds using Faded Jeans Distress ink and the Hills & Clouds mask from the Build a Scene set.

Add grass using the same mask set in Mowed Lawn Distress ink.

Remove the mask and colour the image using Faber-Castell Polychromos (#151, #219, #112, #110, #182, #180, #205 and stalks of grass in #158).

Add one of Leonie's Words stickers.

To finish, mat onto the Antarctica designer card.

I must admit that I had already made the card which I sent with the ATC (see HERE), but I was getting ready to travel to Paris with a school trip the following morning so needed a ready made card.
