Artist Trading Cards for Valentines 4/2020

I am not as comfortable with ATC cards as I am with cards but you never grow if you don't step out of your comfort zone!  I did have fun making them!





I used a paper pack and die cuts I received in a Cardmaking & Papercraft magazine.  It is still available as a past issue.


I used 110 lb card stock cut to 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 inches and glued back to back using Art Glitter Glue as my base.  I glued coordinating card stock to the front and back of each card.  I also used die cuts from the paper pack and applied them using foam tape.  On the top card I added gold pearls and gold ribbon using hot glue.  On the second I added lace, pink paper roses, a beautiful lace butterfly (from AliExpress), rhinestones and pink satin ribbon using hot glue.  On the third I used dark pink roses with green ribbon and made a pocket with coordinating card stock and tucked the hearts in the pocket before glueing.  Crafting really takes me to my happy place!!!  ~  Gracie
