A few months ago I asked Melissa if she'd like to swap some ATC's with me- we finally got round to it :) I chose the theme of Love- just in time for Valentine's Day x The first photo are my ATC's I sent Melissa and the second are the ones she's sent me- aren't they yummy? I love how they connect together. We are both looking forward to our next swap :)
I've been meaning to show you these for a while. These Atc's were made by my team mates. Top row: mine, Lisa Bullock, Carol McCready, Kristine McNickle Bottom Row: Vicky-Lee Mueller, Joanne Rowntree, Wendy Jane.
Aren't they great? The theme was -The Man in Your Life.
This weeks theme at Gothic Arches is Marie Antionette- how could I resist this? I made 3 arch ATC's but here's my favourite. Materials: Chocolate Chip Cardstock Tea Party DSP Forever Flowers Wheel En Francais Elegant Eggplant Ribbon White Gel Pen words from Vintage french dictionary lace from Granny's stash Images from Graphics Fairy, find it Here
This week with Melissa Davies over at Swap Sisters we made this really cool ATC with little shutters, this is the one I made. To create the background I've sponged in Garden Green and Certainly Celery and then inked the Forever Flowers wheel with Garden Green and randomly run it over the Very Vanilla Cardstock. Finally I highlighted the pattern with the white gel pen. I used some patterned Vellum (Non SU) but you could just as easily use the window sheets. I love 18th Century imagery, so here's Marie Antoinette.
These are the first ATC's that are part of what I hope will become a regular Team swap. I love ATC's because they are a unique mini way of sharing creativity. The first photo is the ATC I made, and then the second photo are the other 5 from my talented team mates. Next theme is childhood memories.... so stay posted.
Here's this weeks Swap Sister ATC Challenge. I've used Baja Breeze and Not Quite Navy (my new fav colour). Used the Tres Chic background stamp and the small Damask Stamp from Tiny Tags and of Course flower and hat pin from the Pretties Kit.
This week Melissa Challneged us to use this Seed Packet Clip art on our ATC, and to Mount the finished ATC on a card. I brayered my background on my ATC with Not Quite Navy, stamped with Vintage Vogue, added the clipart brayered with Pink Pirouette and some pretty flowers. For the card base I used En Francais Background Stamp and distressed with the Not Quite Navy Ink Pad.
Here's a cute little Boy Blue ATC I created following the "rules" of last wednesdays Swap Sisters ATC Night. I do love ATC's and have quite a collection now, they are just a great small way to flex your creative muscles.
Every wednesday night is ATC night at Swap Sisters. This week was to use pink and white card stock only. With 2 paper embellishments, 2 pieces of ribbon or lace and paper flowers. Here's what I've made, a pretty in pink new baby ATC.
These are my first ATC's and I just love them!!! I know I'll be making more, I'm keen to swap, so if anyone out there wants to swap with me, email me. I chose a theme of Marie- Antoinette, and I love how they have a vintage aged feel, but are pretty too. I've used heaps of embossing on here with scraps from old books. Colouring with inks and blender pens.
