Dear Lizzy ATCs


After making three cards with the Dear Lizzy papers,  there was a good-sized pile of leftovers on my table. I gathered all the neutrals and made a couple of artist trading cards.

This went out to Cynthia

I used the image of a camera on one ATC and a mason jar on the other. The rest of the text papers were treated as varying pattern sizes to be layered behind number tags. Some distressed brown cardstock was added to hold everything together.
 

These small scale projects are great for testing out design ideas. Only small amounts of time and supplies required, with the bonus of being totally satisfying when completed.

Linking up to these parties.

Supplies : Dear Lizzy Neapolitan (Cheerful Notes, Dreamy Days, Sea Breeze, Sunny Skip, Epoxy Stickers)  Coordinations cardstock
