Today I have a little project to show you. Little as in size as this is an Artist Trading Card (ATC). I joined in the Vera Lane Studio Facebook ATC swap this month. The theme is “Hello Spring” and what more springy is there than Tulips in Amsterdam? I used two sets namely, Amsterdam and Matryoshka dolls.
Using MS Word, I created a rectangle sized at 3×2 inches and then added 3 digis from the Amsterdam digi set, sizing them accordingly. I then also added one of the Matryoshka dolls and sized her. I then moved them out of the rectangle and printed the digis out on Canson C’ a Grain Drawing paper. I colored the 4 digis with my Prismacolor colored pencils and then fussy cut them. I ran a black marker along the edges once they were cut out.

I love your spring ATC Monica. It's a brilliant idea to go with the tulips in Amsterdam theme! You managed to get such a lot onto the tiny canvas! I am thrilled to see you join in the fun at Vera Lane Studio! Unfortunately we had to change the swap to a challenge since some countries were not accepting international mail. So the good news is: you are in the draw for a VLS digi set prize – good luck and hope you'll join us next month! xx
Beautiful ATC Monika love the scene and sparkly tulips

Hi, Monica! Your colorful ATC is pure delight! And what a change for you – spring in the SW instead of Florida! Loving your bright, happy colors! hugs, de
Tulips in Amsterdam and tulips here are just gorgeous…x
A fun combination of topics 🙂 But the result is great. I love your Dutch buildings and beautiful Matryoshka. Small form creates additional difficulties, but you did it sensational.
