Above photo is ATC I made using this style. For this swap, we will use the paint scrape technique to create 1 ATC for our one partner. Find a sturdy ATC base (2.5" x 3.5") to use for this creative moment. Using Christmas colors ( reds, greens, white, gold, silver, pink turquoise, etc), line up medium dots of color, along the long edge of your ATC. Scrape colors down (using an old gift card or sturdy piece of cardboard) to the bottom edge of your ATC. Continue in the same way, until you are happy with how it looks. Be careful not to let the colors get muddy. I usually swipe at least twice - one on top of the the other to be sure the colors can be seen clearly. Lightly embellish, leaving most of your paint scraping visible. Add swap Info on the back - your SB moniker, swap name, date, and title if you have one. Write a short note (at least 4 sentences) to your partner on separate piece of paper/notecard. Place in protect sleeve to mail. Posted: 10/30/23. Edited 11/2/23 for clarification. |
