Riikka Kovasin - Paperiliitin: Snow feathers

Hi there! Today I want to share a set of ATCs with you. These are made for ScrapFX. I went with an icy, cold feel and created a set of winter themed ATCs. This time I recorded a video also in case you want to see how the cards came into being.

I used a transparency as my card base in these ones. The transparency I used, "Vocational", is so patterned, though, that not much is seen through it. But it gives the cards a fun, a bit of "out of the ordinary" look as I didn't use paper. I've also done some see-through versions during an Artists Live show some time back. If you want to see how those were created and how they turned out, please see this video (link).

To get the icy feeling to my cards I used different pale colored mediums and created a snow paste of my own. There's acrylics, embossing powders, gesso and snow paste in these cards. The main embellishments are the "Ostrich Feathers" but I also used some stars and hashtag words in my cards. The rounded feathers seemed to fit to my snow theme well as they are so soft looking.
