Wicked ATC

I made this for fun and haven't yet found a swap for it, so I may end up hosting one. The concept began with the diagonal lines and the witch's face, and then I stalled out on ideas. I think I'd like to do another featuring maybe the Emerald City and Yellow Brick Road instead of the monkey and shoes.

Cupcake ATC

I made this for a Cupcake ATC swap on Swap-bot using collage and watercolor pencils. It isn't clear from the scanned image, but there are two sequins on the paper.

Watercolor pencil ATCs

These are my next set of ATCs. From top left: Dragon theme swap, self portrait, peacock. The others I made for fun and will swap when I can.

Steampunk ATCs

My first ATC was a no-paper challenge, and I forgot to take a picture. It was a black corset appliqued onto a black background hand stitched onto a cork board card with some dangly fabric scraps. Super cute, but a little messier than I would have like on the hand stitching.

These are my 2nd through 5th ATCs, drawn freehand (traced circles and straight ridges), tea-stained, burned, and pasted onto an intact piece of cardstock. I'm really happy with them.

yes, this is a dirigible with goggles

Cemetery Photo Swap

I thought this swap sounded interesting, so I took my first visit to my town's cemetery. Having never taken a cemetery photo walk before, I enjoyed the challenge of trying to find unique shots. This is the set I'll be sending to two partners.

2013 PC Swap #4

Lock of Love

Private swap sent as kudos to a boy who grew his hair out for three years to donate for a wig for a cancer patient through Locks of Love. I donated 4 months ago, but my stylist was an idiot and I hid my hair beneath scarves and wigs for a month and lots of hats ever since. It's just now beginning to be likable again. I don't regret my decision, but the experience was pretty freaking awful.
