ATCs

A little late in the day but I am sharing some ATCs made recently ---

The top row were made with a smooshed oxide background then overstamped with an old Hero Arts stamp-Gracious Lady" border stamp from Crafters Companion.

The bottom row background was dabbed with oxides then stamps from Lisa Horton IndigoBlu and craft mag freebies-the stamped "sent" was a craft mag freebie and the strips of letters were cut from some oddments of scraps

Ah, the Gracious Lady - my old friend used to love this stamp and I still have an ATC she stamped with it as a keepsake to remember her by. Hero Arts certainly brought out some classics. ATCs were so much fun... we used to swap them at the shows and come home with 50/60 at a time. Reminiscences... Cath x

Oh, gosh, I used to have that Hero Arts stamp. It's a perfect size for an ATC. So many things have come and gone in my stamp room over the years. Can't possibly keep everything and still buy more! Love your blue with her, and your background stamping expertise is showing in fine form on the others!
