Hi! I've made my first Artist Trading Card in a long time! We used to have a group making ATC's for trade every month. It was so much fun! I decided to enter Wicked Wednesday ATC Challenge to play with this smaller surface. For those of you who do not know, an Artist Trading Card is the same size as a playing card-2.5 x 3.5 inches.
I started out with a piece of watercolor paper in the correct size. I blended Tim Holtz Distress Stains in Seedless Preserves, Salty Ocean, and Antique Bronze. I printed out the Mad Hatter digital stamp from the Octopode Factory at 16 per the page on XPress paper. I'm beginning to like digital stamps as long as they have a lot of detail.
I colored the Mad Hatter with Copics and spread some Golden Rod Stickles over his hat and Orange Peel on his shoes. I had the perfect matching ribbon in my stash and had to add it along with crystals on his hat pins. I printed out the saying in Treasure Map Dead Hand (free font-forgot where I got it) and outlined it. The saying is part of the quote the Mad Hatter says to Alice.
I based my coloring on the model of Johnny Depp's version made by Disney. This picture is a trademarked item, but I am not using this for sale, so I hope this is okay to display.
I am entering this ATC in the following challenges:
MarkerPOP! Challenge #26 Anything Goes Just use your Copics or ShinHan markers on a project!
I think your card is great and love the background. And who doesn't like Johnnie Depp?
