Hello everyone, it\u00b4s Sanna here again with another mixed media project share. I created these Artist Trading Cards with the Mix It Up 6 <\/a>stamp set, Leaves 2<\/a> and Big Ovals <\/a>stencil. As a background I used a gelli printed paper that I have used on a previous project (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The background paper, like mentioned above, is from my previous project and done using acrylic paints, a gelli plate and Cross It,<\/a> as well as Marks 2 <\/a>stencils. I used that paper as my starting point and added even more layers on top of it to create an interesting, artsy background for my ATC\u00b4s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started with the Leaves 2<\/a> stencil and cracked pistachio Distress Oxide ink by applying the ink thru the stencil randomly onto the background with a blending brush.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

After that I took the Mix It Up 6 <\/a>stamp set and the Big Ovals stencil and placed it on top of the paper. With ground expresso Distress Oxide I first added some stamped text thru the big ovals stencil onto the background. Then I outlined some of the stamped areas with a black pen thru the same stencil to make them stand out more from the background. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next I stamped some wilted violet Distress Oxide toned splatters with the heart shaped stamp from the same stamp set and also some black numbers onto the background. After that I took the stamp image of the couple and stamped them with black stamp ink onto white paper and fussy cut them. In addition I added some ground expresso stamped words (hope) onto the background for more interest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Finally I took some of the Mix A Sentiment<\/a> stamp set words that I had left over from my previous projects and added them to go with the images. I also decorated the pages with a black pen outline and some fabric, vintage flowers and white gel pen hearts as well as some glitter enamel dots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope I could inspire you to play with the Mix It Up 6<\/a> stamp set and the featured stencils! Have a great time creating!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
