Hi! I want to share an ATC coin with you that I made for the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity challenge: ATC's and Coins. This challenge runs from February 1st through the 14th.
I love the ATC coins. I think they are a fun change up from the standard ATC. I used one of the new Gnome stamps from Lost Coast Designs: Pointy Hat Gnome. Unfortunately since this is a coin, he lost the pointy part of his pointy hat!
I stamped my gnome with black ink onto white card stock and cut him out. I used Copic Sketch markers to color him in. For my background, I heat embossed the Little Diamonds background stamp with clear embossing powder onto white card stock. I then took shades of blue and green Distress Spray Inks and spritzed my paper, then sponged away the excess ink. I mounted my gnome as shown and edged my coin with green marker.
The sentiment is part of a Carmen's Veranda clearstamp - Pets Live Longer. The stamp has a longer saying so I just cut out the portion I wanted to use and glued this along the left side of my coin.
Here he is and if you want a chance to win some free stamps, join the new challenge at the Lost Coast Portal.
