Peacock ATCs!

This was one of those projects that started with a vague idea and I just followed where all the trials and mishaps took me! The ATCs aren't exactly what I had in mind, but I'm still content with what came out of the process!

Peacock ATC set!

I made this ATC set for MarciLB's ATC Swap over at scrapbook.com! I'm also going to be entering them in to Simon Says Stamp's Monday Challenge "Distress It."

These are a rather straight forward process, a lot of Cameo sketch pen work and cutting, followed by a lot of coloring!

For the 'green' of the peacock's tail I mixed Peeled Paint & Lucky Clover Distress Oxides on my work surface with some water & used my water brush to paint!

For the 'stone' I used Weathered Wood & Pumice Stone Distress Crayons and blended them.

After the Crazing Distress Collage Medium was dry, I used a blending tool to add the Frayed Burlap Distress Ink to the surface.

Cut Files:

• All cut files came from the Silhouette Store.
