Hi everyone,
Here are two snarky and colorful artist trading cards that I want to share with you.
My
background is quite flat but although has a lot of layers. I started
with collaging a few book page snippets on watercolor paper that was a
little smaller than a regular ATC. I added a little white gesso on top
and then did some reverse stenciling with blue acrylic ink. Reverse
stenciling means using a stencil as a stamp which works perfect with
different fluid mediums.
Next, I added some yellow acrylic ink and
stenciled on top with another circle stencil and white gesso. I outlined
these circles with a blue posca pen.
I also stamped some marks to the background.
Then
I stamped my snarky focal image, colored the cross eyed fairy with ZIG
markers and cut her out. After inking the cutting edges, I glued her to
the page.
I adhered the cards to ATC sized bases that I cut from black cardstock.
All
thats left to do was adding a quote. I stamped it twice, cut both to
pieces and adhered them to some black cardstock so that it stands out a
little more from my busy cards.
Stamps used:
Cross Eyed Fairy (9334)
We Can't All Be Princesses (19848)
Brush Hatches (20573)
