I'm thrilled that this set of ATCs was chosen as a Top 3 by Crafter’s Castle Challenge #28. Thanks, DT. You certainly made my day.
Hi Artsy Friends,
I hope you’re doing well under prevailing Coronavirus situation. Are you staying home to save the world or continue working/living as usual?
Anyway, it’s time to play along with Happy Little Stampers (HLS) ATC (Artist Trading Card/Coin) Challenge again. The April Challenge Theme is Make Your Own Background. For Challenge Rules and other DTs’ inspirations, please check out the Challenge Blog.
For me this theme is like Anything Goes and the possibilities are endless. To try something new, I challenged myself to use Distress Oxide Sprays which I bought last year and have not even opened yet. The following is how I made my set of ATCs using Distress Oxide Spray Resist Technique inspired by Jennifer McGuire.
Hope these ATCs are eye-pleasing to you. Thanks for stopping by. Wish you and your loved ones stay healthy during Coronavirus difficult time.

2. Spray Distress Oxide Sprays (Spiced Marmalade, Picked Raspberry, Spun Sugar)randomly on ATC panels and heat set.
