Die Cut ATC
Hello Everyone. What a beautiful day it is here with a bright blue sky and no clouds so far. Everything looks lovely and fresh after the rain yesterday as well.
At Fun with ATCs they want us to use Die Cuts this time.
Here is the one I have made using the smallest gear in the Tim Holtz set--Gadget Gears
I did a background with sprays and a green alcohol ink. Let it dry then used the gear die cut to stamp over in black to leave the image on the ATC. A bit of gentle embossing randomly on the edges and then I added the die cut that I had used as a stencil.
The quote is just part of a quote which is really 'Like a ten gear bicyle, most of us have gears that we never use.'
Have a great day all
Love Chrissie x
Lovely piece! Have a fun Sunday, Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteJust think what we could achieve if we used all the gears great ATC :)

This is gorgeous Chrissie ! Love the background and the sentiment... And the embossing in the corners too... I feel like making an ATC now, I haven't made one for ages ! Hugs, blessings and love from Catherine
ReplyDeleteOh, lucky you - our early sunshine has now degenerated into showers...
ReplyDeleteWonderful ATC - I love that inky background, and the sparkle of the embossing round the edges. And I love that you used the die-cut as a mask too - fab! Thanks so much for playing along at Fun With ATCs.
