New ATCs for Trade: Mono Prints/stamped/embellished on Bloomin' Tuesday.

These are the nine ATCs I made
from my own personal mono printing and stamping fabrics
Friday Art Fest.
#1. This first one is black on red and white with some green acrylic paint
top sewn in red and a layer of red tulle on top
and one green inchie tucked inside the tulle #2. Chosen by Corryna: green and blue mono print is top sewn in olive green and black embellished with four brackets in brass & copper; beads and a button strung through with clear nylon wire#3. stamped floral design in red and purple is prettier in person with two purple sparkly embellishment flower centers top sewn in variegated thread #4. mono print in purple, red, blue and green on white is top sewn in loose red stitches #5. blue mono print stamped with off white/vanilla acrylic paint flower stamp is top sewn in variegated thread #6. Chosen by Mieke: little red bird livens up a red, blue, purple, turquoise mono print and is top sewn in variegated thread
#7. black and red mono print stamped in black is topped by red brackets
and a abalone shell turtle
#8. bright blue mono print stamped with flower and embellished with blue bird
and blue beads spelling out "bird"
#9. green, gold, red, blue mono print stamped with circles
embellished with colorful sequins and a bracket holding
the dangling blue wooden bead with sequins all the ATCs are backed with cereal box cardboard
and finally my flowers for bloomin' Tuesday!
Do they not look like a painting?
They are not, they are the real thing
captured by my camera on Sunday in Pt. Reyes Station.
More about that later.
Happy Bloomin' Tuesday

  3. Lynn I like the 2. 'green and blue mono print', although I also like the others. They all have nice colours and structures. This will be my first ATC trade with you. I already have your first postcard, and now I can add an ATC. Great!

  9. Not gonna lie - I'm kind of loving these. Your monoprints are really, really cool Lynn. I just dug out that Quilting Arts again because I can't get those monoprint quilts you've done out of my head. Did you use the gelatin, or did you use something else?? I can't remember. These are beautiful

  10. Thanks all for your wonderful praise of my ATCs today.

    Clevelandgirlie, no, I did not bother with the gelatin this time. I just used the bottom of a bowl I have about salad bowl size. The fabric lays on top of the paint which I have poured onto the bowl bottom.And then I moosh the paint around with my fingers on top of the fabric. Take off the fabric and wha la! a mono print!!!! Fun!
    Messy, but fun!
