This morning I worked on my contribution for the Salt challenge that will be launched on Thursday - so can't show it yet.
Since lunch, I've made my ATCs for this month's swap on CBC 'quick and cute'. I used some stamped images that were kindly sent to me by Purplepenguin (Nick) - by Dewdrop Crafts 'Misty' designs.
The background on the giraffe one was achieved by using a Fiskars embossing plate in my big shot and inking it with Stazon saddle brown. The background of the elephant one was done with alcohol inks: pepper red, butterscotch and a touch of slate and silver.
The colouring in was done with karismacolor pencils, pastel pencils and inktense pencils, blended with Sansodor (I'm still very much at the practising stage):
