Completed! Catterfly Artist Trading Card

Catterfly Artist Trading Card
I've got a lot of works in progress right now, so it was really nice to come home from a very busy weekend (Bear and I got married last weekend - just a little busy, eh?) and complete a project.

For this art card, I stamped the background with a hand-carved lino block given to me by a friend, which I hand-colored with Copic YG93. The flowers are punched out of art paper from my collection, and the little moth is a found object colored with Copic B21.

I love the way the low-contrast colors on the flowers allow the little cat to gradually emerge from the background! This is my first collaged ATC, and I am happy with it.

    I agree, the colors in the background and flowers work well with the focal image... and yay you for diving back into the creative arts. Looking forward to seeing more

    Love the way it turned out! How many more ATCs are you making?

    The sky is really the limit when it comes to how more, but I'd like to have at least ten to bring to the ATC swap at MECCA.
