SOAA group swap...metal tape w/alcohol ink atc

fun swap hosted by maggie @ sum of all atc yahoo group.  use metal flashing tape and embellish it w/alcohol ink.  i also used stencils & an embossing stylus to add patterns before inking them.  then to finish them off i used the alcohol ink on metal brads and whalha.....love experimenting w/different materials & techniques, thanks mags   :)

swapbot...hidden pictures atc

at atc elements & techniques, we did a swap using stamps to design a background and then hid certain designs within for our partner to find.  how cool this technique would be to use to include prayerful words as an underlying msg within a design. 
can you find the hidden pictures...
a flower, castle, heart, carriage & crown   :)
