Playin' along...

I was invited by a fellow crafter to the 

Mixed Up Mag Mixer....

Their latest prompt for the Pix N Mix prompts is

Week 3: Use up old alpha or number stickers/die cuts

so I decided to play along.

First, I wanted to make some "paper"

using some scraps that were laying around on my desk!

some vintage music paper a piece of 7gypsies Architexture paper

a bit of burlap

a couple pieces of lace

a strip of linen ~ cut up

all adhered to a piece of Canvas Corp Kraft paper

using Multi Medium Matte.

I then painted a layer of Multi Medium ~ Matte

all over EVERYTHING! as a glaze.

When dry, I applied a layer of

diluted Gesso.

When dry, I cut my new "paper" into a bunch of ATC's.

Then I went digging for some old Alpha's.

I affixed them to my ATC and white washed them.

I pulled out various Tattered Angels, 

a few pieces parts that I had laying around,

I cut up a few left overs papers and made spiral flowers.

Here are a few closeups of my finished ATC.

So, what do you do with your finished ATC?

I adhered it to a metal sign I had picked up.

just PERFECT!

I hope you enjoyed my creative journey.....
