Tick Tock ATC made into a greeting Card



Happy Weekend Bloggers!

I'm finally getting back to normal after a whirlwind weekend of stamp convention in Albuquerque.  Oh my gosh, I haven't worked that hard in a long time.  It was a lot of work, and DH (dear hubby) worked the three days as well.  We helped set up, two days of the show and demoing, DH helping customers and re-stocking, and then taking it all down and packing it up the last day.  I was happy to come home and take a couple of much needed Epson salts baths!  My old muscles were so sore.  Lol  

Anyway, today's card is an ATC that I made into a greeting card.  Our stamp group made the Tick Tock themed ATC's in January.  I embossed the green card stock and brushed gold ink over the top.  I also embossed the ATC background with the same embossing folder and colored it with distress inks.  Die cut the black clock numerals and cut the die cut into quarters, using only on the top right-hand corner.  The black paper with the gold clocks on it is from Graphic 45.  I'll list supplies at the bottom of post.

I used Copic markers on the little gold clock and Stickles on the wings.

Supplies:
Tim Holtz clock embossing folder
Tim Holtz Weathered Clock die
Ranger Distress inks
Encore gold ink
Graphic 45 black paper with clocks
Leavenworth clock with wings stamp
Copic markers
Stickles glitter glue

  3. This is wonderful Geri! I haven't made an ATC in ages. They're really fun little works of art. You got a lot of great texture on yours. Nice way to upgrade it a bit by using it on a card. Hugs!

  4. Hi Tracy! What a wonderful surprise to see your comment....thank you!!! I'm in a stamp group and the girls love their ATC's. I hadn't made an ATC in awhile, and have enjoyed the trades with a great group of women. Decided to make cards with my extra ATC's, and that's been fun too. Thanks again for visiting. Hugs, Geri
