Do You Have

A bin, a box, or a bag of left over paper scraps, ephemera, bits of ribbon and what nots? I do too. So I put my self to the test to use just these items and see what kind of ATCs I could make. I make my ATCs on recycled mat board cut down to size. Pictured here is some of what I came up with so far. Of all of these I may keep only one. These images come from pictures from poster/art catalog, free image sites, collage sheets, postcards, gifts from friends...etc.

Brilliant idea! I thought it would be great for a few likeminded friends to bring a bag of bits each, muddle them up in the centre of a table and have an ATC night. Might just do that. Thanks for the inspiration, lovely ATC's.

Terri...you've inspired me - I have the same stash of scraps. I am now going to go into my studio and make some ATC's of my own!

Thank you!
