Vicky P inspired ATC at Paperific

The Mixed Media Art team are excited to be heading back to Melbourne Paperific Expo – 26, 27 & 28 August 2022 at Flemington Racecourse, Victoria Australia for three days of papercrafting delight!

Come along and create this layered ATC featuring our new range Create Happiness by Vicky Papaioannou and Stamperia in our *free* Make and Take class.

Just because an ATC (Artist Trading Card) is small (2.5″ x 3.5″) doesn’t mean it can’t have loads of mixed media dimension. You will learn several mixed media techniques, using stamps, stencils, inks, volume paste, glue, die cuts and more to create this gorgeously laid ATC.

Sign up for the free* ATC make & take at the Mixed Media Artist stand at Paperific expo. Sessions every half an hour across the weekend!

  • Note: Entry fee into the Melbourne Paperific Expo is required
