Kaleidoscopic Kite


Here's my next ATC for The Craft Barn Alpha/Dictionary Challenge where the letter is K for KITE mainly but a few others too!!


The background is a mix of Salty Ocean and Broken China Distress Inks, spritzed with water and wiped up with the ATC.  The KITE is the Decorative Diamond stamp from Oak House Studio, embossed with red embossing powder and brightly coloured with Tombow pens.  I've added some tiny gems for a kaleidoscopic effect and attached some knotted string for the tail.  It's just finished with the dictionary definition, the alcohol inked vinyl thicker and some seagulls (Crafty Individuals CI-278) - they're flying in the sky with the kite and the feathers are made of Keratin!!

Hope you like and thanks for looking.  I'm off to see what everyone else has been up to - not many K words but I'm sure lots of you have been kreative!!

  17. Lovely ATC! I was going to choose kite too but changed my mind at the last minute. I really like the little addition of the seagulls - they really finish off the theme of the ATC. Claire x
