Playing with Grafix Artist Shrink Film on ATCs & Inchies

I love to get messy and have fun with mediums, paints, mists, stencils, and a new-ish fun item shrink film!!  now shrink film is not new, but it is fun to pull out again and play!!  I just got this new new set of Shrink film in from Grafix from their artist series and they are so cool, so I had to play.

I love these houses.  It is so simple to create with these designs, you just cut, color, and shrink!!  Check out the video to see how I create these fun set of mixed media ATCs.

The Grafix Artist Shrink film is super easy to use.  Just cut out the shape, color with alcohol markers, and shrink in the over or with a heat gun!  This design is called HOUSE and deigned by Art by Marlene.

I added layers of stencils from The Crafter's Workshop (also by Art by Marlene) with their various mediums and then added a couple of fun tags that I misted with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists and then topped with the shrink film houses.

I also used the Grafix shrink film called SCRIPT also by Art by Marlene for the words in the top corner of each ATC.

I love blue and green, and the pops of the mists and the colors on the houses was a perfect blend!

The mediums from TCW are so amazing!  That little bit of metallic paste popping out paired with the stencils just rocks!!

I love making this trio of ATC I had to make more, but why not something a little bit different, inchies!!

They are not really true inchies, but actually 1.25 x 1.25 inch squares, but close enough.  I also used the Nuvo Glitter markers to add that bit of glitter and shine to the shrink film houses.  They look so cool, but I did have to set them with a little spray sealant to secure the marker to the shrink film.

I also made a larger set that measured 2x2 inch squares to fit the larger houses that were left on the Shrink film sheets.

Here is a video on how I made the inchies!!

To hold all the little pieces of shrink film to the layers of mediums, mists, and paints I used the Supertite All-Purpose Universal Glue.  It is perfect for this project as it has a fast grab and hold is amazing!!

I also have a coupon code for Supertite glue, it is the liquid glue I used to hold all the embellishments together and onto the cards and it is a wonderful glue that is so much cheaper than other glues out on the market, plus it has less chemicals!!
