Hi Playmates!
Di has published RESULTS from the previous challenge, so please hop over to the SNIPPETS PLAYGROUND to admire her top picks and discover which lucky playmate won the prize. There's still nearly a week left to play in the current challenge if you haven't already done so.
This ATC came about when I was about to discard the “stamp-off sheet” that I was using to clean off excess ink from stamps before cleaning them properly. I decided I really liked how parts of the sheet looked, so I cut a portion of it out to use as homemade patterned paper for an ATC.

| The “stamp-off” scrap sheet I cut the background from. I made 2 ATCs from the sheet, but messed up the other one so it got binned! |
I would like to enter this ATC into the March TAG ALONG, BOOKMARKS & ATCs CHALLENGE where the theme is SPRING FLOWERS, but as the flowers on this ATC are abstract, I'm entering under the Anything Goes option.
Details:
- Scrap paper used to stamp off excess ink prior to cleaning stamps.
- Snippets of white card for the ATC base, the die-cut flowers and the sentiment.
- Abstract flower dies by Simply Graphic.
- “Energised” word from the Nature's Gatherings (Set 1) by That's Crafty.
Oh that's fabulous Sarn! Wonderful way to use the stamp off scrap and such a wonderful end result - love it!

Wow you’ve certainly made the most of that scrap and made a work of art, like those flowers too xxx
ReplyDeleteLoving this - a brilliant use of what might have ended up in the bin. Maybe I should look more closely at my 'clean up' papers before discarding them 🤣
ReplyDeleteThis is just so pretty with that background and flowers Sarn xx
ReplyDeleteFabulous Sarn, the background is brilliant and the abstract flowers complement it perfectly xx

This turned out beautifully and you certainly made that snippet work for die cutting and stamping. Thanks also for taking part at Tag-along (and ATCs) challenge.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great way to use your stamp off sheet - a lovely design.

Fabulous ATC, great background and design!
ReplyDeleteI really like your stamped off background, and you've made splendid use of it and other snippets too

The way you transformed that stamp‑off sheet into something so striking is inspiring. The layered inky textures give the background so much movement, and the abstract flowers sit on top with a really confident sense of balance. It is such a smart use of snippets, and the whole ATC feels energetic and intentional rather than accidental.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate your visit to my blog and the kind words you shared. I hope you will stop by again soon.
Better late than never as they say, thanks for sharing Tag-Along (and ATC's) challenge.
