Metal ATCs

The metal ATCs above were created as part of an Art Book Challenge … I’ve been wanting to play with metal! I started these with sheet metal cut into ATC-sized pieces then I used metal patina paints to get a bluish tint going on sort of evident in the bottom right hand ATC. I then afixed metal mesh using eyelets and glued vintage images to the face. Some paint and words plus my old friend ink pad additions and they were ready to be sent out into the world!
