Fairy ATC's

Here is a few of my Fairy ATC's that I made this morning! ATC's are probably one of my favorite things to make! They are so addicting and I really enjoy trading with other artist! ATC's are 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 in size...so you have only a tiny space to work with. But it's so much fun...seeing what you can come up with! For more of my Fairy ATC's check out my gallery on SCS. Hope you like them!

Beate Weekend Challenge

Here's the sketch for Beate's Weekend Challenge (WSC36)! The picture of the card I made, didn't turn out very good! I used this really cool paper that I bought from Michaels and it just doesn't show the brightness of the colors. I added a little bit more to my card than what the sketch shows, but this was a fun and easy card to make! Hope you like it! Check out SCS gallery for all the submissions for this challenge or Beate Blog!

Lil' Sweet Chloe

This really sweet lady (Tracie) had contacted me, asking if I could make an ATC using a picture of her daughter Chloe. I was so excited to do this for her...since this was the 1st time anyone made a request, for me to do a special order. So I ended up making an ATC which 2 1/2 by 3 1/2, but I also made a larger size for her...a 4x6....which is the picture above. Chloe loves bunnies, pink and silver. So this is what I came up with. I think it turned out sooooooo cute! If you take a look at my SCS gallery , you will see that I LOVE fairies and that I have made lots of Fairy ATC's. Let me know what you think??? I hope she likes it!!!

My Mom

I totally forgot to add some picture of some of the altered art I have done. Alone with making cards...I LOVE to altered things! This is a shadow box that I made awhile back. It is one of my favorite pieces, because the little girl is actually my mom when she was little. I just love how it turned out...it's oh so Shabby....! Hope you like it too!
