this ATC works for wicked wednesday #15 dresses/dress forms and for my mojo monthly january play petite. i used designer paper for my 2.5/3.5 ATC foundation. some Tim Holtz tissue tape makes a nice little border and the vintage dress image is from clearly vintage (right now Cora is posting gobs more dress images; check it out!). the little seashell and pearls seemed the right finishing touch.
Sarah at mojo monthly asks that we share about why we make what we make. well, kind of because i can't help myself. although my card making really started with a passion for stamps, i've always been entranced by collage and by taking appealing images and laying them all out together in a pleasing way. if i had my druthers i'd do it all day. i used to be intimidated by ATCs because of the size and but really they are a great little canvas. i have a lot yet to learn about composition and color but playing with glue, scissors and pretty things is a fine way to learn.
special thanks to Marjie K from whose blog i learned about my mojo monthly!
happy art-making friends!
(no more snow here though...)
love to all.
