Arty Girlzs Challenge #4

This week's Arty Girlzs Challenge is "Glueless". In other words the Girlzs would like us to use another medium other than our usual pva's, glue sticks and double sided tape.

I thoroughly enjoyed this one and I'm really pleased with the result. Again I've gone for something very Plain and Simple. I cut 4 slits into my Base Card and slipped a corner of the backing paper into each one. I then cut out two Patterned Tags, Stamped a Single Daisy 3 times using the masking technique, attached both with Brads and edged the card with Chocolate Brown Ink.


For the Backing Paper I used one from Manuela Zimmermann's The Circle of Life Kit from Daisy Company. I overlayed it with the doodle (from the same kit) on both corners and then shrunk it down to size before printing. The Daisy Stamp is from The Stampman's Double Delights Unmounted Stamps

Some ATC's

As I've been away for a couple of days and I'm only going to be able to do something new tomorrow, I thought I'd share some of my ATC's.
'
This was the very first ATC that I made, at the time I din't know quite what I was supposed to be doing, but after an absolute age I finaly finished it. I used Crafters Companions Backing Papers from the Floral CD.
'
It's one that I definately won't be swapping out, not just for sentimental reasons, but because it took so long too make. LOL
'
These next 3 are ones I made for the Crafters Companion Monthly Flitters and Flutters ATC Swap for August.

The Wings Stamp is from The Wendie Rhodes Collection "Metamorphosis Range" and the dragonfly stamp is from The Stamp Man's "Daisy Daydreams" Unmounted Stamps.
