ATC on a Christmas Card!

Hi all - I watched Craft Roulette Episode 275 live last night, despite my long hours of Tim Holtz crafting yesterday. If you missed those projects, go HERE. Here's my CR card, created during the show:


Supplies: Paper - Paper Studio A2 card; 
Neenah Solar White; scrap of blue
Dies - Spellbinders Holiday Greetings (retired
but HERE at Frantic Stamper, called Snowflake Bliss);
Simon Says Stamp slot die (in TH class kit)
Other - Versamark ink and Seafoam white embossing powder;
Distress Inks - Chipped Sapphire, Black Soot, Blueprint Sketch;
Spellbinders gems & puffy sticker; SSS printed sentiment

Mary & 1st time guest Hannah C. (‪@MostlyPaperCrafts‬) had fun with the parameters:


  • Project - Include an ATC: I made an A2 card and included an ATC.
  • Colors - Starry Night: I used dark blues, black & white. 
  • Element - Down: My ATC slides down into a slotted panel. 
  • Random - White Dots: I stamped and white embossed using an ATC stamp.

So, I still had my Tim Holtz class stuff all over the place. Grabbed the slot die we used and made a panel to slide my ATC into. I ink blended black and blues on an A2 card & spritzed with water. Stamped an ATC base, which included white dots, onto a blue card & white embossed it. Looked for my ATC die set - found it after I'd already trimmed it with a paper trimmer! Oh well. Rounded the corners with a corner punch. 

Grabbed an old Spellbinders snowflake die set and cut two white and one blue. Added some blue gems to the ATC's snowflake. Used a Spellbinders puffy sticker sentiment on the ATC and a Simon printed sentiment to cover the bottom slot. Here's a photo of the ATC out of its slot:


I will send this card to a new challenge for me - Cut it Up where for Challenge #334 they're doing Christmas in July (must use a die cut). My friend Darnell (djkardkreations) is guest designing! I will also play at Darnell's IDEAS for this week where I is for inks. My ink blended background qualifies!!

That's it for today, friends. Thanks for stopping by & I hope you have a crafty weekend!!
