Tag Along & ATC Challenge

Today sees the start of a NEW MONTHLY BLOG CHALLENGE for ATCs and tags, called TAG ALONG & ATCs run by Brenda, Lynn and Pinky. Each challenge starts on the 1st of the month, with a mid-month inspiration post from the DT on the 14th.

I'm quite excited about it as I make and swap a fair few ATCs and although I don't make many tags until Christmas time, I'm hoping it will encourage me to make them more often.

You can enter up to 4 times per challenge - here's my first entry:

ATC 2.5" x 3.5"

The photo below shows what it looked like with just the outlining done, before I added the doodling & shading:

Details:

  • Snippet of white card to create the ATC.
  • Pink Distress Ink added in patches and splatters with an acetate sheet.
  • Pink areas outlined with black fineliner pen, then doodling added.
  • Pencil and paper stump used for shading.

Wishing Brenda, Lynn and Pinky all the best for their new challenge. I'm sure it will be a great success.
