Today I'm here to share the latest Lavender and Lime entry - an ATC Box created by Vicky Fernando:
Vicky says:
"I started by working out my own template to make the pouch, to which I added a window by using one of my nesties, & covered the section with a piece of clear acetate. I then used some gold ink & a gold pen to do the edges, adding the Collections scroll, & the butterflies (from Darkroom Door), which were stamped with Archival ink onto some sraps of previously painted (with purple & lime acrylic paint) watercolour paper, covering them with Dimensional Magic".
"I finished the piece with a word from a Darkroom Door word strip, & some ribbon. I then got to work on an ATC sized Stampbord tile. I used all Darkroom Door stamps from various sets, Adirondack ink (lettuce) for the background & Archival ink for the images".
"I edged the tile with a gold pen, added some pearls & a word from a Darkroom Door word strip".
Fantastic work Vicky!!
I hope you have an inky weekend everyone!

Love this ATC Vicky, what a wonderful composition and the colours are so yummy.
Now for the stupid question....what exactly is Stampboard? I have heard of it, is it another name for chipboard?

Thank you ladies, I really enjoy working with Stampbord tiles... To answer Lesley's question, a Stampbord tile is "an absorbent, clay-coated wood surface" that allows you to scratch back into your stamped image to create great detail & highlights :) Here's a link to the website http://www.stampbord.com/about.html
HTH :)
