  • Admire!

These ATC's are from my "Off the Desk" Series.
At the end of the day I use only what is on my desk to create one or more ATCs.
Suzanne just sent me the Flourish and Grow stamp and  I'm stamping this sentiment on anything that doesn't move!
I've enjoyed  the 3D Foam Shapes more than I thought I would.
The trick to using the small bits it leaving them in the foam backing and just removing the cover paper of the shape while applying your embellishment.
Above I'm using some thin foil guilding, and the same process was used with the embossing powder.
Next you can push your shape up from the backing paper and put it in place on your project.
