Hello Thursday and welcome AP blog followers!
Time for my first post this month using our partner product-M-D Hobby&Craft -Aluminum Metal Sheets.
After cutting my sheet to size with tin snips,I painted the metal with DecoArt Americana Spa Blue acrylic paint and covered the edges with Washi tape.
Next I cut out a fairy and friend from AlteredPages collage sheet- Little Fairies-AP1554
The
graphic was fancy cut , then glued to black cardstock and the cutout
again, leaving a bit of the black around the edges for dimension. Next I
coated the fairy and friend with DecoArt DuraClear Gloss varnish.
My next step was to color my AlteredPages Flower Trim from green to a matching blue.
Time to audition my pieces
My finished Springtime Fairy atc!
I love how the sun shines through the metal sheet and creates that neat design on the table!

Fab ATC, love the washi taped edges. It does create a wonderful pattern on your table! :-) xxx
Wow, love that metal background...will have to try it out. Of course I would want to use it as a stencil and also for printmaking because that's how my art brain thinks...
Those kiddos are precious, and love the background!!!
HI J.P.,

Such a happy looking ATC with a real Spring feel to it! It brought a smile to my face just looking at it, the metal sheet looks amazing!

This is so old world charm love the frolicking pair ,well done love how you show us how to use new products...
Whoo Hoo for that cool metal sheet. I was wondering if that product could be rusted.I agree with Linda it could also make a unique stencil. I'd like it with molding paste. See what you do to us Jackie? You have our creative minds spinning with ideas. Proof of a good post.
Wow! The background is amazing! I love sun and shadow.
Great card!

Spring is marvelous. At that time can see even fairies. Your fairy card is like a little piece of fairyland and atmosphere fabulous.
Nice work. Always you can.
I love your posts as you always bring us new things on the market that we can try! Turned out so cute.
this is such a happy joyous piece of art Jackie! Those aluminum sheets would be great to use as stencils too, and the washitape is beautiful ....
I'm liking the metal sheet, not seen it before. This could be very useful in all sorts of ways.
Loving the way you've used it to make the ATC, it's a great effect.
Your crafty friend, Angela x
The painted metal filigree makes such a wonderful background for this fabulous frolicsome pair (well done on the fussy-cutting - rather you than me!) - delicious!
