APC's - Birds - Queens




I wanted my queens to have crowns and they had crowns of feathers of course, but I added some small paper die cut crowns and then I added some hearts to the tops of the crowns for an extra touch of pizzazz.

APC's - Postage - Queens




For my queens I used stamps that had images of Queens on them, patterned paper, a touch of washi tape and a small banner with a  title for each quartet.

Paper Doll Pocket Letter - Movie Star

I found some gorgeous Alice Faye paper dolls for this pocket letter. I loved the extra photo images mixed in with her outfits that showed her in movie scenes or candid shots.

Turtle ATC's

 Tribal
 Realistic
Whimsical
For this swap I drew with sharpie pen and colored with Spectrum Noir and Copic alcohol markers.  I decided to try 3 very different approaches to the turtle theme.  First I did the more realistic sea turtles, then I came up with the cute whimsical turtle with the flowered shell.  I finally came up with the tribal designed turtle for my last turtle and I feel like I accomplished my goal.

Vintage Botanical ATC's



This swap required the use of at least one vintage botanical. I decided to use berries and mushrooms.  After adding in some washi tape, I found some small die cuts to add the finishing touch to these ATC's.
