ATC's

I made my first ATC's (Artist Trading Card) for a trade. They are small 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" cards. The theme was "Spring Recycled" We couldn't buy anything new, but had to use what we already had. So I recycled some dryer sheets by fusing them together, stitching with metallic thread and coloring them with water color paints. Then I added some "stuff" that I had hanging around (beads, flowers, ribbon, tulle, glitter paint, etc.). It was a fun assignment and a good way to use up bits and pieces of stuff. I'll trade these six, and get back six others! Click on the photo to get a close-up look.
