ATC Card Swaps

Well, these may look familiar-they are in my new banner! I made these for an ATC Swap with my Upline, Georgina Martin. The technique we had to use was embossing, so I used Versa Mark ink and white embossing powder to emboss the flowers from Boho Backgrounds onto Purely Pomegranate Card Stock. I had grand ideas for these ATC's, but didn't realise how small they were - 3.5inch x 2.5 inches, a lot smaller than cards I'm used to making!! I ended up using these ideas for my weekly card swap-the pictures of them are posted below:

The colours and stamps are the same, just slightly different layouts! These cards came together quite easily, I just didn't realise how fiddly embossing the flowers were (they are quite small and close together!) I'm looking forward to seeing what I get back in my swaps!
