Teabag Paper ATC

The theme for the 9ATC Group is Tea Bag Paper. After the used tea bags had dried, I emptied the contents and cut open the bags. Sprayed the paper with a gold spritz mixed with yellow dye ink and let it dry.

Then sprayed the other end with a red spray I found already mixed in my supplies and let that dry.

Stamped a large "B" stamp with black StazOn ink and let it dry.

Glued part of a  dictionary page to card stock and then glued the stamped teabag paper on top with clear glue. Stamped a caterpillar image with black StazOn ink and after it dried, colored over with silver metallic ink. also added some silver dots above the word BREATHE. Then added vellum wings to the butterfly.

Make your own Washi Tape ATC


The theme for 9ATC Group is to Make your own Washi Tape (directions below). My homemade Washi tape is the strip in the middle. For the ATC, I adhered the homemade tape with two strips of black decorative washi tape on each side onto some decorative background paper. Added decorative stickers and adhered a charm with black thread. This was layered onto black card stock.


To make the Washi tape, I pressed it onto a book page and pressed down before lifting it off the page.

Next, wiped the top of the masking tape with a baby wipe to ready the surface for stamping.

Used black StazOn ink with a collage type stamp on the masking tape and let it dry.

Transparency ATC

The theme for the 9 ATC Group is Transparency. I stamped a cut transparency sheet with a background stamp using Azure StazOn ink. Placed an extra transparency sheet behind it for stability and taped the edges with decorative washi tape. Used a die cut to cut a butterfly sheet out of a transparency sheet, the ran the butterfly through two different embossing folders that had been inked with black stain ink. Taped the butterfly to the ATC, added the same washi tape to the body of the butterfly and added a clear black rhinestone. View of the ATC held against the sky outside:
