Weekend Inspiration: Art Doll ATC's by Lisa

Aren't they fantastic and fun?! Lisa created these miniature works of art with products from our store.  Here's what she says about them:

Today I am sharing a design team project for the Scraps of Darkness Online Store. Did you know in addition to our monthly kit club you can shop for all your artful treasures in our store? You don't have to be a kit club member to do this- all are welcome! You can find our kits here in the store.

AS IF that isn't enough we have a wonderful community on Facebook you can find here. I mention the community because we have an ATC swap hosted on a regular basis. I chose to do some ATC's for my design team project this month and these little beauties are for my partner Sarah Routledge. (Hope she likes them!)

I love art dolls. They are so fun to work with. I have a ton of files of all different dolls and I mix them up creating a full body out of all different parts. It is so fun! ( ooops I already said that!)

I used the beautiful Blue Fern Studios Chelsea Vines chipboard found in our store here.

I painted them in Silks Stargazer found in the store here and then I embossed them in Stampendous Encrusted Jewels Gold found here. In addition to embossing in the gold I sprinkled on Spruce Willis Prills found here and then embossed. I love the effect it created on the leaves.

I also embossed the Vintaj Arte Metal Buckle Decorivets found here. I used them as glasses on this doll but they are a buckle of sorts. I used these on each doll. You can see the effects on the leaves and the metal in my close up. I also machine stitched around all my ATC's. 

I used the Blue Fern Chelsea Vines again and this time painted it in Silks Nutmeg found here. I also embossed the buckle again in the Gold Encrusted Jewels and Prills.  The buckle is also the Vintaj Arte Metal.

Can you see the texture on the buckle? So cool!

On this last ATC and I think this one is my favorite... I again used the Blue Fern Chelsea Vines and painted it in Silks Wisteria. We don't have any Silks left in this color but there is a beautiful Raspberry Wine that would work.

Once again I embossed the buckle. I also used Prima Art Ingredients Glass Glitter in Violet found here to add sparkle to this ATC. To finish off my ATC's I did some random stamping in the background, splattering and hemp cord. These are items I acquired through past Scraps of Darkness/ Elegance kits!

Hope you guys like my ATC's and are inspired to make some of your own!
