ATC Trio... By Julia

Hi!

I am back with some inspiration for Blank Page Muse shop.

Had such  an awesome and difficult time choosing what to use, but finally decided to use Digital Page with Small Calendar and Versatile Mothers Day Florals Images 2024 May Pam Bray Designs.

I made a trio of ATC's and they were so much fun to make:

Hope you like today's project.

Fantastic Plastic (in PINK)!!!

Hi Stamping & Crafting Fans

Hope everyone has been enjoying the crafting inspiration from the DT here at the Blog!

I've been making time for crafting lately and it has been great - even doing a few classes and an ATC swap which has inspired my post for today!

I love using acetate to make things and recently I participated in an Aussie swap Pink/Plastic themed ATC swap so I decided to make a few more using BPM stamps and accessories available in store!

To start I cut some thick acetate to ATC size and used shades of pink and gold alcohol ink - alcohol ink I've had for years and never used! I love the effects of the different colours moving and blending with each other!

Stamps used:

Correspondence Set by Katy Leitch - Script stamp

Lady with Butterfly Wings

Smile Winged Muse Stamp

Queen Word Stamp

Crown Stamp

***Remember to us the code BPMSharon at the store for 15% off ***

So many fab stamps to choose from!

Note: you can use the code at either the IBFS Store OR the BPM Store - why not do an order from each and increase your stash!

And visit our social media sites for more stamping fun!

Lady and Lace ATC

 Hello! Today I am on the blog with Blank Page Muse and an ATC (Artist Trading Card) that I created with their ATC sized stamps! 

Supplies used - 

Lady and Lace ATC stamp

Slimline Stars Stencil

White cardstock

Purple Cosmic Shimmer

Washi Tape

TCW Gold Modeling Paste

Old book page

Twine

Lots of how-to pictures on using Comic Shimmer check out my Flamingo Card using Blank Page Muse stamps

To start this card, I used Cosmic Shimmer on the table and dragged my cardstock through the colors several times, drying the card a bit before each drag through. I let this dry then glued it to another piece of cardstock for some stability. Then stamping the image of the Lady and Lace on the front of the card then trimmed it down to 2 1/2" by 3 1/2" and rounded the corners. I then tore some washi tape in several colors and add this to the bottom of the card along with a small piece of old book page. 

I then used the Slimline Stars Stencil and taped off one of the stars and added it to the top right of the card with gold modeling paste and wrapped some twine around the bottom of the card. 

Thanks for stopping by!!

Sunshine ATC

Hello, Monique here with an ATC to show you.

Artist Trading Cards (ATC) are so much fun to make, working on a small surface (ATC size is 2,5 x 3,5 inch) can be a bit challenging, but the size is always good for a quick and easy project too.

Be careful these little cards are addictive, they can be collected and traded with other crafters and soon you will have a collection of little works of art from all over the word.

Look on Facebook for trading groups :-)

Supply list:

Blank Page Muse Sunshine, Cherub, Sunflower art stamp set SC 81

Distress ink in Peacock Feathers, Mustard Seed

Stamp ink in black

Markers or Colored pencils in Yellows and Oranges

White cardstock (or pre made ATC cards)

For detailed instructions see video:

Here some close up photos:

I Hope you enjoyed watching the video and I can't wait to see you ATC cards.

Floral Patterns

                                                                        Hi BPM Fans!

Hope you are all well and enjoying our month of floral inspiration!

Today I am sharing an idea for making background patterned card for your atc's, ATcoins, tags, envelopes, card fronts - whatever you need a patterned background for!

You only need a few supplies so let's get started!

Supplies:

Blank Page Muse Stamps: Petals & Flowers Set designed by Michelle Frae Cummings

Blank Page Muse Stamps: Medallions Ornate Patterns & Flowers Set designed by Michelle Frae Cummings

Coloured Ink Pads

White and/or Kraft Card 

Instructions:

Use your stamps and ink pads to create a patterned background on your card - use complimentary colours and different size stamps to cover the entire piece of card.

You can get so many great effects - and you can be neat or messy with your stamp placement!

You now have some great patterned background card for creating with. Use a die cut machine to cut tags, trading coins etc. for use on any project! Add collage elements and embellishments!

Thanks for joining me!

Keep checking back here for more DT inspiration!

And remember to share your creations at our Facebook Group - we love to see what you are doing with all the fabulous stamps available in the store!

Happy crafting!

Sharon

Anything But a Card! So how about ATCs and ATCoins???

Hello Hello!

Welcome back crafty stampers! So happy you are here today!

This month our challenge theme is Anything But a Card! I adore this theme, it's just so f u n!!

It's Kim today and I wanted to share some ATCs and ATCoins I made. I made them for a swap but sadly my partner never got them :( I took a few photos because, I'm not afraid to say it, I really liked how they came out. And I really wanted to share them! So, I hope you like them. I don't have process photos but they are super easy and fast and fun to make with whatever stamps, papers, pens, inks, basically whatever you might have on your desk!

Here's the group photo! Such a fun family o'cards!

Time for solos and closeups!

This dragonfly ATC uses some scraps from my backgrounds and scraps box.

Stamps used:

Dragonfly

Photobooth Style stamps

Background handwriting text

Everything is stamped, then colored with Distress Inks

The border frame (segment) is a dimensional stamp I bought at Dollar Tree.

ATCoin

Girl with flowers basket

Summer Wild Flowers Postoids background stamp

Embossing Powders

The girl stamp is a long tall thin stamp for maybe a book mark, but I just used a portion of it.

I'm not a great colorer, I know that's not a word? But I like to emboss the stamp then the water color like effect kinda fills in an looks really cool!

Edge the border of the coin/card with some distress ink or any ink to "hold" in the design!

The background is also embossed in purple powder that has some shimmer.

ATC Sunflower

I love sunflowers! This Sunflower Postoid stamp like the Photobooth ones are perfect for planners and ATCs and ATCoins.

Sunflower Postoid Stamp

Handwriting Background Stamp

Shiny embossing powder

Edge the small stamp and card with the shiny powder to make it all pop!

Stamp the text background with a portion of the stamp then reink and rotate to get the segments. Color the blocks with a waterpen and Distress Inks

Dragonfly ATCoin

This gorgeous dragonfly stamp is designed by Pam Bray Designs.

It's abig stamp and I only needed a portion to fill the coin. I embossed the stamp and used Distress Inks to color it in.

The background is from my scrap box and honestly I have no clue how I made it! But love it anyways! Edge the coin in shiny EP to hold the design together.

Remember to Play!

Have an amazing day!

Fall Leaves ATCs

Hello!  Susie on the blog today and I am still playing with leaves!

I swap ATC's (Artist Trading Card) with some of my friends and we tend to make the themes of the swaps seasonal.  I absolutely adore all of the stamps in the The Femmes collection, but they are too large to fit on an ATC.  This month I decided to use only a part of one of those images and I think it worked out beautifully!

Time to play...

Supplies:
The Femmes Fall Leaves Lady stamp, large
Clearsnap ColorBox Blends inks by Eileen Hull
Watercolor paper cut to ATCs - 2.5"x3.5"
Authentique  Paper
cardstock

Directions:

• Position your stamp on a stamping platform and stamp image on a scrap paper.

• Position ATC sized watercolor paper on top of the scrap paper to catch the part of the design you want.  
• Use a small amount of double sided adhesive on the back to hold it in place. 

• Stamp image. 
• Repeat this process until you have the correct number of ATCs for your swap. 

• Color images as desired. 

When your ATCs are finished you can swap them *OR*  you can use them as focal images on cards!
(What a great idea!)

Looking at my collection of The Femmes stamps, I can definitely see more ATCs in my future!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find some time to play today!

Celebrate Dictionary Day with Blank Page Muse

Hello!  Susie on the blog and today we are celebrating Dictionary Day!

I am kind of a word nerd and will admit to flipping through the dictionary to find new and interesting words.  Who knew there was a day to celebrate that?! When I saw the Creativity Definition stamp from Blank Page Muse I had to have it!   Since today is Dictionary Day, I decided to combine my stack of gel prints with the definition stamp to create more ATCs for my CAS card stash.

Time to play...

Supplies:
Creativity Definition Word Phrase Rubber Stamp by Terri Sproul
Just Us Girls Line Figure Art Rubber Stamp Sheet by Terry Sproul
Background Grunge Art Rubber Stamp Sheet by Pam Bray
Gel prints for backgrounds
Archival Ink - Black, Aquamarine
Cardstock

Directions:
Cut gel print paper to 3.5" x 2.5" and stamp with Creativity definition in black ink.

Stamp female figure with black ink.

Stamp Background Grunge elements as desired.

Optional:  Stamp Background Grunge elements with alternate colors before adding definition and figure images.

Repeat to create additional gel print ATCs.

Mat ATCs with white cardstock and mount on black cardstock to create CAS cards.

I have to say, the Background Grunge stamps were great for adding little elements that balanced the designs and the Just Us Girls Line Figures are perfect for a little abstract playtime. I love making these ATCs because it is a fun and practical way to use up my creative experiments!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find some time to play today!
Susie
