ATC Swap Proposal

[JeannetteC]

Dana for doing a great job on the photos and posting them. I really love how great they all turned out!

Elsa, glad they liked the ghost. It was my first attempt at using the coiled wire.
I coloured the card and pumpkin with Copics. I used metallic gel pens to add the accents on the broom and the basket.
I used a glass effects embossing liquid to add the shine to the pumpkin and to the leaves
I can't think of what you call the fuzzy stuff that I added to the flowers at the base of the tree. I know it was in 4 packs of little plastic tubs on a card for a buck at Michaels, lol.

My moon tutorial is now posted on my Blog,(along with a couple of really early snowman photos). It is my first tutorial, and I am not the world's greatest photographer, but hopefully it will be of some use.

The tut on the moon is fantastic. Thank you so much for sharing your technique ! I love how it just rises up off the card "like a harvest moon".

Great job on the tutorial, Elizabeth! And the pictures of the snowman are amazing!

[Elizabeth]

Thanks for looking at it, Linda and Gigi! The snowman is looking a bit sad now, as it has been above freezing during the day for the last several days. I don't think DD will make another one on the deck, because it makes her sad to see him melting. She is a bit of a softie!

Thanks, everyone, for the answers to my questions and for the great tutorial.
Sorry it has taken me so long to respond. I have been under the weather but am on the mend, now.

Oh my ...I see that I totally spaced out this swap . I am so so sorry...
What a wonderful job you all did ..they are so cute Im sorry I missed out. Hopefully things will slow down...I know they will cuz Ive learned to say NO!
I look forward to joinging crops and swaps again. I learned so much about making cards and paper crafting. Just last night I made some boxes..they are so cute!

forgive me for forgetting...I thought I was forgetful but then I forgot that I was...Now I remember .

LOL Maxine! Keep an eye out in February for another ATC Swap as we are right in the middle of one right now that are due on February 1st. I am sure someone will want to start another one not long after that as these little babies are addicting! I am working on a method of hanging all of the ones I have received on my wall right now. I have the last set (winter) to prepare and then I can get them hung up and show everyone what I did (if I like how it turns out LOL)

[Maxine]

I will Kathy. I love making them too. I got plum addicted when zenita was doing them over at mtc. Cant wait. I think mine will be a bit better than the last ones I made ..im becoming more friendly with paper.

[kathybessey]

LOL Maxine I just put yours (and all the others I have received) up on my wall and it is great! I am friendly with paper, just not too imaginative with creations especially so little. I look at mine from each swap compared to others - ugh

I still have fun doing them though so people have to put up with me LOL Can't wait to have you join in on another swap!

[Elizabeth]

Whatchu talkin bout, Kathy? I have one of your cards from each of the swaps I've done, (4 total) and I think they are all terrific!

[Dana]

I can't believe I am missing all these cards. This was my favorite swap

WARNING LADIES: do not clean your craft room too often or you might accidentally throw things away. Don't ask me how I know this.

Aww Dana honey I am so sorry
