when?

Just a quick share, I made a couple Atc's (Artist Trading Cards) for the mini-challenge over at more than words...the mini-challenge is done on Facebook so you can check it out here or go to their blog...

I love Atc's because I get to use up some scraps (I'm a hoarder of scraps I have two draws full) so between my art journal and ATC's I can make a dent in it LOL

 I used a lot of distress oxides some really cool distress oxide sprays both of these can be found at Scrapsalot Debra carries lots of different colors. I wasn't sure about the sprays but the colors are very vibrant I even used them on the metal butterfly

the first layer was distress oxide inks just added randomly, I knew this was mostly going to be covered up.. then for my second layer, I used molding paste and a couple different stencils to give it some texture. I used my heat tool to make drying time faster. now for the fun part, I took the spray oxides but didn't actually spray then...I unscrewed the top and just dabbed a bit here and there then sprayed with water to move it around..let it get into the nooks and crannies LOL I kept doing this until I was satisfied while it was drying I was trying to narrow down my bits and pieces and trying to figure out how I was going to layer them.

** Done way ahead of time...I have a small container full I made fake enamel dots out of distress ink and clear Nuvo drops
