Apil 2013 Hug Trades

April 2013 Hug Trades 

(catching up on posting these pretty samples)

 When our Fun Stampers Journey team gets together, we conduct a card trade. We refer to these small cards as, HUGS. A hug base is 5 X 3 1/2 (then folded in half). The card base is the size of a standard ATC (artist trading card), which is 3 1/2 X 2 1/2.

The hug trade for the month of April, 2013 had a challenge of using our Whip Cream ink and then after dried (by means of time lapse or using a heat gun), color the image with the ink from one of our re-inkers and using a painting tool.

The single card pics are all using the challenge technique and the group pictures below are a combination of all the hug trades.
