You have to Believe....a set of 3 ATCs

Post by ChristyB »

from the Jan issue of SNR
tfl :D

The background as made by gluing layers of found text, and scraps of patterned papers together. There is probably about 10-15 layers here. After it dried I then scratched and tore pieces off so you could see all the layers.
Antique Linen, Vintage Photo and Weathered Wood Distress Stains were dabbed all over the tore bits. Water was misted to make the colors run even more.
Once dry a Webster's Pages Sticker was cut up to make my branches. The birds are from Prima.

The quote was printed out and aged with Distress Inks.

Wow, those are gorgeous!
Having just read Monica's idea for a green cyber crop that might be a good technique to use for something recycled.

These are great. I tried that technique once, but I think it ended up in the garbage :lol: Yours are beautiful and I think I need those birds.
