Fancy a swap?

The new challenge goes live at One Stitch at a Time today and the theme is a perennial favourite - Anything Goes! :)

 

For my project this week, I decided to do something different and not do a card... my inspiration came from the gorgeous image I was given to work with - Godshill by Ike's Art:

 

 

 

I loved this little village scene so much and I decided to have a play about with colouring it with different mediums - so I made a set of 4 ATCs, each coloured with a different medium. Isn't it amazing the different effect you get just from changing the medium/way you colour an image?

 

Here's a close up of the individual cards and the mediums used to colour them:

 

Promarkers

Distress Markers

Watercolour pencils (dry)

Watercolour pencils (painted with)

It's easy to enter the One Stitch at a Time challenge - just make your project (it can be anything cos Anything Goes! :D), post it to your blog, or other online gallery, and then link your entry up at the One Stitch at a Time blog. You can enter without using a Stitchy Bear product and will be entered into a draw to win a $3 gift voucher for the Stitchy Bear store. If you enter using a Stitchy Bear product, you'll be entered into the draw to win this month's fabulous collab of digi stamps and papers from Stitchy Bear:

 

 

I'm also going to swap these ATCs. If you've never made ATCs before, they are a lot of fun. You can use any medium you like - stamps, digi stamps, paints, doodling, hand-drawing, mixed media, collage, anything you can think of! The only rules for these little mini pieces of art are the size - they must be 3.5" x 2.5" - and that they cannot be sold, only traded or given away.

 

So if you'd like to make an ATC and swap it for one of my 4, please comment on this entry and say so. I'll contact the first 4 people to say they want to swap so we can exchange postal addresses. :)
