Fun With ATC's - 3 Or More Stamps


No inks.

Morning all. I hope you are all well?
Today we are starting our new challenge over at Fun With ATC's
The time round we are asking that you create an ATC using at least 3 stamps.
For my ATC I decided to create mine without using Inks as all but still wanted to get an aged and vintage look, where I would normally reach for my distress inks I decided to use my Decoart acrylic paints.
The back ground was created with colour washes over a cream base.I started by stamping over the whole ATC with a vintage script stamp from Artistic Stamper,
I stamped the Da Vinci image with black paint as well as his name.and then used Quin Burnt Orange to stamp the Fleu De Lis. All these stamps are from the da Vinci set available from de stempelwinkel.
The ATC was sealed using Decoart Faux Finish and used their 2 step crackle applying two coats of step one and when dry applied one coat of step 2.When that dried I rubbed some brown acrylic paint into the cracks.
Thanks for stopping by, it's very much appreciated x
You have two weeks to create an ATC and we would love to see you join us or at least stop by and see what the rest of our DT have created. xxx

I would like to enter this into the challenge over at Anything But A Card, they are having an Orange and Black challenge. x
