ATCs for a change :)


Hello everyone :)

Well I managed to do some crafting over the weekend - it was only 2 atcs but I was very pleased with how they turned out.

I havent swapped them in so long that when my friend Lynsey had some cute bear ones up for grabs I thought what the heck!!!

I have intertwined my personal swap with Incy Wincy Designs - Challenge 3 the theme is Cats, so I used a cat I drew and also the 3rd image of the Inger Harding designed Chelsea collection it was lots of fun playing with the images.


Here is my cat - coloured with watercoloured pencils - the backing paper reminded me a bit of a wallpaper so I thought if I make a mat (torn to give a shaggy appearance) that would be plenty. I had all these ideas of lamps and couches - but hey its only a small piece of card :lol:

Beautiful Chelsea is looking a very smart in her outfit - I thought of her playing in a large field. But then I thought making a multi-colour background would give her a sort of hippy feel but not too overwhelming. What do you reckon???


I thought Id share with you what you can win on this fortnights challenge over at Incy Wincy Designs Up for grabs is this special bundle of images. Go to the blog to get more info on how to join in :)


Have a wonderful day and hope to be back in a day or 2 with Lynsey's 3rd atc and maybe a card or two!!

Great ATC's Heather, I am getting close to trying one. I have been doing tags for Tuesday Taggers, this is the smallest I have gone, and have really enjoyed it. It has taken me far out off my comfort zone, so maybe some ATC's will come soon. Your's are fab. Hugs Avril xx

Hi Heather - love your ATC's. I used to love making those and the grandkids even used to make them and send me some - they are too busy now at school. I must get back into making them.

I've enjoyed your blog!
