quick turnaround atc swap

I joined this swap its has a short time frame- my partner diana62167 likes the color blue and also likes cats so I made a cat atc for her, and also made a spare atc to celebrate spring

I got interested in empty space- the cat is sitting in a hole I made in the card and the spring card stars are punched out and tissue paper sits behind the card for color.

Received my swap goodies today

here are the pics of what lavenderlizard sent me for the spring cleaning dishcloth swap- 2 dishcloths, a bottle cap magnet and a pair of handmade earring's. I feel spoiled!

International Butterfly ATC swap

I entered this swap- am mailing two cards to my partner- Emeraldcharm14 (Dottie)







I found out my partner likes cows as well so I made her an extra ATC

ATC exchange at work

Tammy likes hummingbirds.
Neda is going to Florida on vacation this summer.

Penny loves lighthouses.


Patty has raised 13 seeing eye dogs!

Belinda has a rooster collection.

I've been blabbing about swap bot at work, and got the women I work with excited about ATC. We've promised to make one each to bring in on Monday. I've gotten addicted so I made each of them their own, based on something they collect or like to do.

my first batch of ATCs

Here are a few of my first attempts at ATC's.


I was being wistful about summer ..

This was an experiment with fabric paint for a 3D effect.

"The fall of a leaf is a whisper to the living"

Popcorn!

I had this really primitive leaf stamp and thought about prehistoric times and dinosaurs and how Barney now represents dinosaurs to little kids.

Rugs

This is a large rag rug I made using the Toothbrush rug making technique. Yes, you actually use a toothbrush (that has been altered) as a needle.

This is a close up of the weave of the rug.

Here is a smaller rug, the first one I ever made.

These rugs are great, they are machine washable and very warm under foot.

Brandi's ATC

I made an ATC to include with the baby bouquet.

baby bouquet

My friend and co-worker just had a baby girl. This is the baby clothing bouquet I hand made for her shower. Its consists of 10 pair of socks, 5 bibs, 5 onesies, and 6 washcloths made into flowers.
