AMAZING ALICE ATC FROM WENDY!
This is simply the most stunning ATC I have ever held in my hands! Thank you so much Wendy Aspinall for being my partner in this Blissful swap! Wendy created a beautiful magical scene as dreamy as a summer day...adorable winged Alice in the mushroom garden with the white rabbit, bee, dragonfly and butterfly all glittery in muted shades...this confection made me want to get my Alice book off the shelf for the photo shoot...I think I found the perfect page for the spotlight.

Finally the doors open....what a wonderful wonderland will lay behind them?

Every Queen needs a beautiful royal scepter...

SAINT VALENTINE'S DAY ATC AND TAG SWAP...
Wonderful Hostess Tee at THE ALTERED PAPER hosts the most fun swaps each month. She is such an organized and clever artist and I so enjoy being a part of them. For February I joined in the ATC and TAG swap...this is my art that I sent on to my partners...I hope they like them. The cameo is cast in paper clay from a mold I made of my Oma's vintage ivory cameo...I just love playing with paper clay and love how this turned out!

ATC'S for MY MONTHLY THEMED SWAP with AMCA...
Birds of a Feather...this is done with a napkin, decopaged and sprinkled with glitter and tiny ice flakes...the holly berries are tiny red seed beads.
On the first day of Christmas...this theme will go on all year and in December you will have a whole set. I have the wonderful chocolate wrappers from the House of Dorcester in England...they are so perfect for the ongoing theme!!

BLISSFUL WINNER TAKES ALL ATC...
This Steampunk ATC was made for the winner of Blissfuls winner takes all lottery over at Wendy's creative blog...each month the artists can pick a favorite theme, and if they are the winner, all the artists make her an ATC in that theme! This is cuttlebugged plumbers foil and a clock done in paperclay edged in gold marker.
FROSTY STICKPIN SWAP...
These are my stick pins I made for my partner in Tee's Pin Swap at the Altered Paper...each one has shades of winter...
VINATGE ATC AND ENVELOPE...
Tee at the Altered Paper has the most fun and organized swaps each month. I so enjoy being a part of them. This ATC has a vintage theme to it just right for January...
I love to stamp with Opalite inks onto photo paper because the image is hidden until you turn the card into the light...it gives it a magical quality.
I hope my partner likes it....

SEED PACKET AND DRAGONFLY ATC
Two ATC's I made for my swap partners in AMCA. The dragonfly is stamped into hot UTEE and colored with Pearl EX...glitter was sprinkled in to make it even more blingy. I love this technique because it brings out all the detail in the rubber stamp. I ink the stamp in Versamark so it will release easy and give the powder something to bite onto.
JANUARY TAG OF THE MONTH SWAP...at THE ALTERED PAPER with TEE
This is my tag I sent to my partner for the first swap in this set.
The poinsettia is done in paper clay and colored with chalk inks to match the tissue paper on the tag...vintage wallpaper and pretty ice glitter make a frosty statement for January.
This is the tag I got from my partner...a vintage confection!
