Flutterby & Lighthouse


An atc that i made usinggolds, greens and copper paints on textured card for the background and vintage butterfly stamps and inks and pens for butterfly and a little foam to lift the wings slightly














The second one is a stencilled Lighthouse that i have made using polyfiller ( yep thats right ) Me and my whacky experiments hehehe. I used the polyfiller with paints and inks and then sealed to stop it from crumbling. I liked the 3d effect it gave

Fab atcs, my favourite is the butterfly the colours are amazing. ts wonderful.
The lighthouse is lovely too, was it a bit like using texture paste? Did you have any problems with it cracking when it dried? Well done though they are fab, Jaqi

love the gold rich tones of the butterfly ATC and what a great use of poly filla that could be used instead of molding paste..thanks for your great comments on my blog
