Artist Trading Card 2.5" x 3.5"
Good morning Paper Crafters! Today I am sharing an Artist Trading Card (2.5" x 3.5") designed for the "Word Art Wednesday" challenge HERE. Word Art Wednesday is a weekly challenge where Cass provides a free "word / phrase" art for your use in a project. I used Impression Obsession clear stamp set "Home Sweet Nest". Have you seen Impressions Obsession's new online store?? so much better than their old one!
I created the background a while back ( I have a pile of them ready to go for ATC's). But I think I used a spray ink and then lightly pounced on brown ink using a stencil brush. Then distressed the edges with brown ink as well. I stamped the nest directly on the background and then layered Copic colors (E23, E25, E59, and then E49). I colored the eggs with watered down blue acrylic paint. I stamped the bird on watercolor paper and colored with NeoColor Watercolor Crayons (brown #59 and blue #180). I printed the word art and used chalk around the words, then inked the edges with brown ink. I adhered both the word art and ATC to blue cardstock and trimed around the edges with deckled scissors.
Have a great day!
Melisa

Wow Melisa, this is jaw dropping gorgeous! Love the design you used!
Beautiful, Melisa - love the way the colours complement each other and the scripture just jumps out without overwhelming the bird.
