Happy Little Stampers ATC Team Floral July 7 2019


July 7 2019

Welcome Back Friends,

I am proud to announce I have made the ATC Team at Happy Little Stampers! I have always enjoyed creating ATC's and with the recent discovery of ATC Coins, I am smitten!! This is my first post for Happy Little Stampers Challenge Blog which can be found here:  Blog !

I am a born, raised and aging Ohioan, north east Ohio to be exact. I thought summer was never going to get here, I turned my heat off in the middle of June, instead of my usual April 1, Yikes! Have no fear though, summer is here. Today it is unbearable with the heat and humidity, my AC is running over time, Yikes again! LOL. All this heat was my inspiration for my trio of summer floral ATC's. Longing for a beach breeze, the sound of the ocean and the beauty of tropical flowers, lead me to my finished projects.



Creating ATC's is the perfect time to go hunting in your scrap bin for your card stock supplies! I have a rolling cart with 7 pull out drawers and space for another drawer full on the top! I have my scraps sorted by basic colors stuffed in the drawers. with pattern paper added by color too.

Here is what I did:

I pulled out Navy Blue, Light Blue, White paper stock and then pulled out scraps that complimented my colors that had patterns.
I trimmed my stock to ATC size-  2 1/2 inches wide by 3 1/2 inches long. I then trimmed patterned paper is various shapes, one I made into a flag/tag, the next into a mat for my stock and lastly just a strip of paper.
From there, I began stamping my flowers, and embellishments to add to all 3 ATC's. I then fussy cut them out.
Next I began by trying pieces out on each ATC card till I found a combination I liked for each.  I glued down all the embellishments, and pop dotted a few flowers for added dimension.

I really like how the trio turned out! Please consider joining us at Happy Little Stamper Challenge Blog. There are many different types of challenges to enter, and win some fun prizes!

As always I appreciate your visit and kind comments.

Until next time......

Robin
