Here are the wonderful cards I received from my swap buddies. I have found a way to display them so I can enjoy them all month. I just attached them with tiny little clothes pins to a brown ribbon tacked to the wall above my sewing machine. I love to look at the cards while I'm sewing (or, lately, marking).
From left to right the cards are from Jill, Deb, Cheryl, Stacy and Cory. There's such a wide range of interpretation of the theme every month. It's neat to see what everyone creates!And here are the cards I created for the group. As you will notice, I strayed off the beaten path this time and did something a bit different.
I found vintage family pictures on the internet and injected a touch of humour to my interpretation of the theme "Family".
I added some fancy letters, typed words...
Colourful paper...
Silly accessories...
And even did a bit of "hand-tinting" with my pencil crayons.
It was a lot of fun!

My December cards are almost ready to go... I just have to let them dry.

Yep, dry. You'll see...

I love all the ATCs you did for November. Your were a busy lady being so creative!
I like the way you display your ATCs.
I have a little bullentin board above my art work space and keep the current month up until the next months cards start arriving. Then, they get placed in a little box so I can look through them whevever I want. I love them all so much!
Happiness to you...
