Monday - look out - here comes another week!

Morning readers, 

I've a couple of makes to share with you today ....... both Artist Trading Cards and both "the same but different" - a batch make, to produce a few .... where I cut all the panels and selected one set of stamp/sentiments ... I then embellished each image panel slightly differently, as you will see below.

My finished ATC

Materials used:

• ATC blank
• Snippets of white card and handmade cream card with gold foiled foliage
• Aall & Create image and sentiment (from set #406) stamped using Versafine Clair nocturne ink
• Using make up brushes I applied Memento dandelion to the entire image panel (avoiding the image, obvs) and then Ranger Archival pink, working from the outer edge towards the image and then Ranger Archival majestic violet, to the very outer edge
• Sharpie pens used to colour

I'll be entering the above make for the following challenges:-

On a recent walk, in the shade, I felt the urge to take this photo and to, once again, ponder how lucky I am with the walks local to me! Strangely enough, this footpath is along the side of the parking lot to an enormous office complex! Doesn't look much like it would be though, does it?
