Morning All! Monday morning strikes again so I'm starting the week off with my latest for
Simon Says Stamp & Show. It's an ATC theme... Artist Trading Cards... your own creative signature in miniature! I used to make lots a while back and just love working in small detail so I was ready to rumble!
l decided to play with my smaller Art Parts from Wendy Vecchi and boy... I had real real fun. These were just great to make and I kinda fell in love with each one on the way.
A little house frame I made from scrap card, Wild Honey ink and a
Scallop piece as a roof. Had to have some polka dots and a butterfly somewhere. I stamped the butterfly onto
Grunge paper, cut him out and inked up the rougher reverse side. The sentiment is from the
Homemade Art set and is a perfect fit!
Then lots of itty-bitty things which is one of my favourite past-times!
The background uses lots of
Distress inks in Stormy Sky, Broken China and Rusty Hinge and is stamped using the
Nature's Art set.
This little one is feeling rather elegant. I used the
Dress Forms and more which has been lovingly inked and the stamped with the Love to Make Art set in
Ranger Snowcap Pigmnet Ink. This time I used the large
butterfly stamp as an outline to create wings on a painted vintage book page.
This back ground is from the
Celestial Art set. I added a stitched circle, a charm clip and a vintage earring from my stash!
And number three, looking perky. This flower is from the
Florals Art Parts pack and the stripey background from
Fit for a Queen set. Lots of Autumn tones using Rusty, Hinge, Scattered Straw and Bundled sage.A little stamped sign in a memo pin and a rusty washer and brad centre...
Went to town with stitching, stamped
leaves, stapled wire, and well, all sorts of goodies. Can't get enough on there!
I hope you can see how versatile Art Parts are. They're just so easy to work with and immediately create dimension and interest.I could have done another 50! I'll leave that up to all of you! Look what's up for grabs, a fab shopping spree and the much desired Top Three title!
Phew! That's me all finished up for today. I'm off to dabble, my head is spinning with ideas! Thanks for taking a look. So what do you think? I'd love to hear from you and will gladly answer any questions on the crafty gossip side...
One more arty shot for you. Wishing you all an inspired week! Sarah.

They are simply Beautiful!
I love these little detailed miniature works of art! The colours are wonderfully rich and glowing too.
Sarah, this is absolutely brilliant. I love the colours and even though they all have different themes they all fit together perfectly. Love it. Jean.xx
Haven't done an ATC for ages but am tempted to have a play by these gorgeous bits of art. Colours are beautiful, make me want to pull on a woolly and go out kicking fallen leaves.
Oh! How I wish I'd thought of those! They are just wonderful! Hope work hurries up and finishes - I need to make art!
Sarah...your little ATCs are so lovely! I love each of them. Love the vibrant colors, all of the darling little details and all of the technique you used on each piece. They are your usual style...brilliant! <3 Candy

Fabulous "Aren't They Cute" pieces of ART. I always love the little bits and pieces you add to your creations, fabulous. Love the dimension and the backgrounds, the stitching, the colours, well all of it really. So so creative.
