I signed up for a stencil ATC swap in November on Rubberstampchat. The swap was to send in 8 and receive 8 ATC's back- and the hostess was Deb Lovett.
I was very happy to get out some Pan Pastels-from the Donna Downey
Mixed Media l collection and stencils I had not used at all from Crafters Workshop (from Creative Cuts and Crafts in Elmhurst, Ill) . The stamps are from
Artistic Outpost .I stamped the stopwatch image a second time and added a 2nd layer of it for a little dimension. For my first attempt at Pan Pastels and stencils, I am pleased with the outcome : ) The pan Pastel pigments do have to be sealed- so they are misted over with a fixative (between each layer).
Linking this to a few Challenges:
Artistic Outpost referral program
HERE - theme Anything Goes with A.O images
Frosted Designs- Bucket List- using the Pan Pastel kit and stencils I bought last July.......I have been watching tons of how to tutorials and links from Pintrest, so finally got the courage to Just do it! Yeah!
Addicted to Stamps- Nature
Frilly and Funky- follow your Muse....my first ATC with Pan Pastels and stencils : )
Fun with ATC's- something new- the Pan pastels and stencils are new/unused as well as the technique of the ATC
