Apron ATC Swap

Good Morning

Just thought I would share with you an ATC (Artist Trading Card) that I have recently completed for a closed swap. The theme set for June was Apron's. I immediately thought of my design whilst I was sitting there with the ladies.

I wanted my design to be an actual apron including the strings and sewn hem. So below is my ATC, I do hope the ladies like them.



These little creations are surely becoming one of my favorite things to create now. Thanks for looking and allowing me to share:)

Another ATC Completed for a closed swap

Good Morning:)

Another post for me today, I'm on a roll!

Just wanted to share with you all a ATC (artist trading card) I have completed recently for a closed swap with nine fabulous creators.

The theme was set for May of the Wild Wild West. Originally I had my mind set on Annie Oakley the famous female quick shooter, but my mind started to drift towards the actual show that Annie was in and that being of Buffalo Bills Wild Wild West show.

So I have now completed a dimensional ATC of the Buffalo Bills Wild West "The White Eagle" guiding and guarding atc for my final take. I used the earthy tones in this one as the picture has alot of it in it. I raised the horse and rider and the white eagle and added some cream mesh on the background. I hope the ladies who are receiving them like them. It took me a little to create the raised pictures on four different levels, but I'm very happy with the outcome.



Close Up to see dimensional work.


Thanks for dropping by to see my creations. All of my ATC work and layouts for 2010 can be viewed over on my sidebar in the slideshow:)

Week Five of the Scrap Boutique's Challenge

Good evening

Just thought I would share a quick post in relation to the challenge that I completed over at the Scrap Boutique Postcards challenge.

This week landed us in Japan! The extra criteria for the challenge was to incorporate paper folding of some sort. I decided to create a little paper fan, made from handmade papers.

I completed the layout using a photograph of my Brother, sister-in law and Nephew who live in Tokyo. I tried to use all the colours that where in the example sheet, so I hope I did it correctly!

My layout is called:

Wear It with Pride and Confidence.



Thanks for taking the time to look at my creation. I hope you all have a fabulous weekend, whatever you plan on getting up to.

Week Four of the Postcards Challenge

Hi there!

Thought I would share my interpretation of the Week 4 - Scrap Boutique "Postcards from around the world" with you. Last week's challenge set us deep in the heart of "India".

The extra criteria for last week's challenge was to add more then one photo.

This is my layout called "A Taste of India"



The photographs were taken at a Curry Festival that happen annually at Woolgoolga, where I used to live. The belly dancers and Indian Food stall were perfect for what I wanted to create, I hope you like it to.

Thanks for dropping by and seeing my creation.

Good Morning Ladies

Welcome to the month of May, I do hope this is a great month for everybody.

Every month I spotlight an Artist from either Australia or Oversea's, this month I would love to share with you a very lovely lady by the name of Tanyah Payne.

Please find below Tanyah's photo, biography and a layout for preview.

Tanyah Payne:

Biography:

I have been a scrapbooker for 6 years, live in Northern NSW in Lismore with my wonderful husband Brett and their two children. Scrapbooking has provided so much joy to my life, brought the most amazing experiences and friendships to cherish.

Wanting to share this passion which has lead me to have a action packed blog full of inspiration and ideas every day www.tanyahpayne.blogspot.com and also owning a shop where I teaches classes for over 4 years. Been on a few design teams and currently on the Bella DT where you will see my work in spotlight flyers, kits, blog inspiration, displays, magazine adverting and scrap-it TV also am honoured to have my work published in scrapbooking memories and honourable mention in the masters edition in 2007.

My style is what my friends would call it eclectic. Love to try all types of arty things with texture and give a 3D appearance. My favourite colours are pink/green and anything bright and happy colours to work with. A lot of my work has lots of layers and clustering parts of her work. If you would like to see more of my work. click HERE...(http://www.scrapncraftwitht.com.au/gallery/categories.php?cat_id=14&page=2)

Thanks Tanyah for sharing with us a little about yourself. Tanyah and I haven't yet met, but I cant wait the day we finally get to meet:) Tanyah has just opened a new store, please follow the links via her website for details.
