Challenges

I have just finished drawing some requested whimsy ATCs for some personal trades and I think these two fitted just fine for 2 challenge blogs this week. Thought they would also make a change to the collage ATCs I usually make for these challenges

On theme thursday the challenge is things with wings.




On the three musesthe challenge is zlightly zetti, althoug I think this would have done grand for both challenges.



sorry scanner started to play up whilst scanning this one.

I adore the theme with wings, as wings represent 'freedom' for me. Below are 2 of my favourite ATCs that I made for swaps but I just couldn't part with them and wanted to share with you as the one of the challengs is things with wings.

BUBBLE WRAP BACKGROUND SaWo

SATURDAYS WORKOUT challenge this week is BUBBLE WRAP BACKGROUND.
I had already prepared some old vintage book pages with acrylics for journals as done by Traci Bautista and now I've just bubble wrapped them with metallic acrylics. Made an ATC only need to put a saying on and it's done .

I know I saw a tutorial about preparing book pages with acrylics, I'm sure it was the talented PATTY SZYMKOWICZ check her out she has a fantastic blog.

HELPING HAND

this is the theme on mixed media monday this week............am a little in late in contributing, but thought I would use an old ATC I made.

Haven't participated in many challenges lately as my wonderful greythoud Betty isn't too good her bone marrow is not doing its job which should be in producing blood cells or platlets so she is being given a helping hand in the form of steroids.

Whimsy galz #55

I'm loving making these whimzy galz ATCs. In the last 3 weeks I've traded about 40 of them on the ATC group ATCS for all. What a fab group and with so many greyt artists, certainly is a challenge to try and better my techniques and learn new things...........something I've been missing for a long while in the world of ATCs here.

Greyt taking part in so many ATC swaps too.
