ATC Challenge - December

On the home stretch now! These are my ATCs created for the Scrapping Clearly 2025 ATC Challenge - December prompts.

Week 49 - Resist Technique
Old-school simplicity!  Wax candle swirls, with a waterpaint wash over the top. This is what the background looks like:

I added some diecut ephemera {Simple Stories Simple Vintage Coastal - Bits & Pieces} to finish it off:

I used some sheet music in the background, with music themed die cuts {Basic Grey B Side and Kaisercraft Off the Wall collections}, and some paint smeared over the top.

White with SUMMER

This is my layout share for the final White with 1 challenge for 2025.

Here's the mood board and challenge criteria ~

BLUE, YELLOW and SAND on a WHITE background to create a happy vacation layout.  I started with a simple mixed media background {Ranger Tim Holtz - Peacock Feathers distress ink} and added small pops of the other colours. I coloured the chipboard title with white paint pen {Dusty Attic Hello April chipboard set + Pilot Pintor -White 8mm pen}.

I'm sharing my page at Simon Says Wednesday for the Anything Goes theme.
