Gustav Klimt Tall Cards

Open media swap using the style of Gustav Klimt.


I used photos of women in white dresses and put them on a lightly patterned scrapbook paper background.  I used Bic permanent marker to add designs to the dresses and background.  These tall cards measured 2.5" x 5".

Little Houses - ATC's

For this swap the ATC's had to be shaped like houses.  This was an open media swap, artist's choice.
I decided to do the houses on the left hand side using patterned scrapbook papers, washi tape, Sharpie pen and Bic permanent markers.  For the houses on the right I used a peeled paint technique on watercolor paper for the background, washi tape, vintage images, pieces of ephemera and some mini staples.

Advent Envelope Calendar

This was created for a swap with swap-bot.  I made envelopes out of scrapbook paper and found the numbers in one of my Christmas paper packs.  Inside each envelope was a small surprise - stickers, gift tags, foam scatter like glittery stockings, miniature ornaments, and rubber stamps.
 I stung my envelope on a ribbon with mini wooden pinch style clothespins.



I found this cute cardboard box at the dollar store and packed the calendar inside for mailing.  
(The post master loved it.)
