Artist Trading Coins

Hello, I'm just coming to the end of two weeks off work and its been a lovely relaxing time (apart from starting Sian's old bedroom!!, several trips to the dump and all that decorating entails!) - its also given me a chance to catch up on some crafty projects and to partake in the Paperartsy fortnightly challenge - the theme for the last two weeks are Artist Trading Coins so I'm in!! lol

Here is one of the coins I've created…

The base is a Tando Creative AT coin and I added grungepaste thro' a stencil… I then added Paperartsy fresco chalk acrylic on the top, blending in four colours… I then stamped one of the flowers from Tracy Scotts ETS07 set, coloured and cut out and adhered to the top of the coin - a couple of stickers were then added to finish it off….

Tando - September colours

Hi,

Can you believe that its September already? before we know it it will be Christmas - how many crafters, I wonder, have already started on their Christmas cards?

Today, its my turn over on the Tando Creative blog.  This week is the colour theme week, and the palette for September is:-

lovely autumnal colours aren't they?

In keeping with other months, here is my mixed media board number 9

One of the larger chipboard boards was used as my base and was painted using acrylic paint.  The bubbles stencil was also used on the background along with some doodling.

My focal image was some elements left over from the whimsical birds 2 set.

Pop on over to the Tando blog and see some other colour based themes.
