I made a masterboard then cut it down into four card toppers.Meant to take step by step pics but got slightly carried away lol
Stencilled backgrounds using stencils from That's Crafty and using Izink sprays.
Decoart media acrylics through Tim Holtz and gesso through Artistic Flair stencils.
Stamps and sentiments from IndigoBlu/Craft mag freebies and Artistic Stamper stamped in oxides then in black-another one of my texture stamps round the edges and paint tubes stamped and 3-D-coloured with distress inks---a lot of fun and not too much mess lol.

You always make the most unique and interesting ATC cards.
You really are so good at these mixed media pieces, whenever I have tried I feel that I do not have a clue what I am doing and I get myself in such a mess ... ink everywhere! I marvel at your skill, great colour balance and you know when enough is enough.
