For the challenge on Linda & Rosies BAA where the challenge was to create a thick wooden ATC... well I had no wood apart from some mounted wooden stamps and so.... into the microwave for a couple of seconds (please don't try this at home..LOL) to loosen the glue and off came the rubber image. just like that.
I gessoed the wood twice and then poured a few drops of ink onto a makeup pad and rubbed it into the gesso...cut out some images and adhered them to the block and with some of my fave stamps I added postal franks.Chris took the top 2 pics and somehow we didnt get the reverse photographed b4 she left for home...what were we thinking about... so I must appologise at my attempt at using my camcorder on my laptop, the pic is really bad. The top pictures are the true colours.
The bathing beauty in a sitting pose had to have some celulite removed last night... I swear... you ask Chris..lol.
I have only had this laptop 2years this Christmas.. lol and never used the camera ...but really must get one of the DGC to show me how.... ROFPMSL.My ATC block I have decided is a wooden postcard.
Thanks for looking and thanks for the challenge ladies.
Have a lovely weekend.
Chriss.

Your chunkie is wonderful Chriss! Love the color, makes me want to go to the beach :) I am feeling that much more than Christmas spirit at the moment! Aren't you clever unmounting your stamp and rescuing the wood....I may need a microwave afterall (I know! our son says we are positively medieval not having one LOL) I can just see you two all excited snapping pics and enjoying each others artful company and then realizing....ooops *ggg*
ReplyDeleteLove that turquoise colour Chris...and how clever to use a stamp block! Its turned out really well...so glad you joined in.

OMG OMG OMG Chriss these are brilliant.
ReplyDeleteYou used my favorite color. I love your work.
This is so, so pretty! Needless to say, I LOVE the background color, and how clever that you used a stamp block! I "unmounted" almost all my stamps years ago and don't even remember what I did with all that wood. I like the shape of this!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty...I can totally see this as something to accessorize the house with. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI've been reading a lot about chunky ATC's of late. Great!
