His and hers outhouses ...

Not quite the traditional wedding card I know .... but I have to say this was much more fun to make, and was greatly appreciated by the bride and groom - or at least that's what they told me ! lol

This aurora borealis background was similar to the cistyscape atc I made a few weeks ago, but with this card I used an Impression Obsession stamp. Lots of coloring with pencils and fussy cutting followed. 

Of course you want to see whats inside those doors ... drum roll ....

Yes, two sets of eyes. I made him a bit higher than her - its imperative to be anatomically correct ;-)

Hope you like it, please leave me a comment - thanks.

Doors atc

The title for the latest atc trade was 'doors'. Hmmmm ... quite a broad subject really. I always like to do something different from the other gals, and didn't think they would be doing out house doors, so I went for it. LOL. I have this absolutely fantastic stamp from Impression Obsession, His and hers outhouses - how wonderful. I love quirky stuff like that ....So here is my doors atc, isn't it just perfect :) I think my favourite ever.

 I stamped the 'hers' outhouse onto Ranger kraft emboss resist cardstock, cut it out, added detailing in black and scrunched up tissue paper flowers, that I sponged with brown. The background was made from acrylic paint, the stars stamped and embossed with aged silver embossing enamel. Finally little silver embellishments and a splash of white acrylic.

If you can see though, the door opens, and inside we spot a surprised set of eyes, there in the darkness... LOL

As I look at this pic, I can see the reverse side of the Ranger paper, the side you are meant to use as the front, but I wanted writing inside the door. Wish I had grafitti'd it a bit more, would that have been awesome. I will save that for next time I do a toilet door project ! LOL

I just love making atc's, if you havent tried it, you definitely should, its fun to work on such a small canvas, 2.5" x 3.5"
