Gelli Print Background ATC
The theme for the 9ATC Group is Gelli Print Backgrounds. I made several gelli print backgrounds and used two sheets to be each side of the ATC. Stamped 3 words in the bottom left corner. Taped a black and white ribbon down the center. Used two other gelli print backgrounds to cut out some flower shapes. Cut and textured a large black and gray paper flower shape, layered them and attached with a black mini brad
Making the gelli print backgrounds. Brayered white and pink acrylic paint over a 6" square gelli plate, then pressed a decorative scrap over the top several times.
Pressed each of the above pink sheets into the gelli plate to pick up the yellow paint and then cleaned the plate.
Brayered blue acrylic paint over the gelli plate, then pressed a sheet of bubble wrap into the paint.
I pressed a sheet of paper that had picked up some of the extra pink paint off the gelli plate before cleaning and ran the brayer already covered in yellow paint into the blue covered gelli plate here for this result:
Re brayerd the blue paint on the gelli plate, layer down a swirl stencil and pressed down the lighter pink/yellow sheet over the stencil covered gelli plate, and cleaned the plate.

One Letter,Number, Color, and Image ATC
The theme for 9 ATC Group was to choose One letter that was used for one number, one color and one image. I came up with S for Six Silver Sandpipers.
Used a die cut for the "6" cut out of flashing tape, and layered a variety of silver colored papers/card stock, and stamped an image of 6 sandpipers with silver metallic ink.

Window ATC
The theme for 9ATC Group is Windows. I rubbed brown dye ink over a birch (wood) ATC. Stamped a window image with brown dye ink, then cut our the "glass" section. Layered this over glittery butterfly paper. Added a butterfly sticker to the upper left corner of the window. Stamped the words Go explore with black StazOn ink.
