ATCs

Happy Square Root Day! It only occurs nine times each century so, enjoy :-)

I tried my hand at making Artist Trading Cards for the first time yesterday and I'm totally hooked. What a fun format and I love how they come together with the little bits and pieces I save that are too small for more LOs. At TSR there is a bi-weekly "easy" ATC swap where you make and send one card. Since I was too sick to meet my deadline of March first, I had two cards to make, one general and one St. Patty's themed. Before I knew it I'd made four. So I guess I have spares now.

Here they are:


The green and blue one was made specifically for a friend.

I used my Retro Cowgirls and Sacred Heart from Bombshell Stamps.

Did you know Bombshell Stamps is having a St. Patrick's Day Contest over at Paper Craft Planet? If you join the Bombshell group there you get a 20% off coupon - so if you've been itching to try out some of Shannon's rad stamps it's a great opportunity.

  6. Those stamps make wonderful ACT's. Looking at them I wouldn't have know they were the first ones you have made. Aren't the addicting?
