ATC Swap

These are the very first ATC's I have made. I participated in a swap (Thank you Shannon :0) and we had to make 10. It could be about anything. I had seen an ad for a picture that had the ABC's of life, so that gave me the inspiration for "Life Lessons". Can't wait to get my return ATC's! I am just fascinated with this little beauties. And I love the fact that you swap with other people. Love seeing what other people think of.
I tried to cut all my words from old magazines (I have so many to choose from LOL) I painted the background with a creamy yellow and beige. Using a crumpled piece of plastic bag for a sponged effect, I painted some deep red.



Then I made a little heart from chipboard and pounced some gold paint on it then sprinkled with some fine green glitter.

I think they turned out okay. Nothing fancy. I got kinda nervous thinking about what everyone else was doing. But, they're mine. And I'm going to keep making more.
