ATC Mania

It warmed up enough the last week or so for me to work in the basement aka "my studio" (say it with a haughty lilt because I am such an Ar-Teest). Anyhow, it wasn't Arctic in the basement and I made a few ATCs. I like to make them because they are fast and easy.




this one has made an appearance on the blog. The anatomically correct heart image was inspired by an ATC Jas Faulkner shared with me.



The background paper is from the back of a Nordstrom catalogue and the dragon fly is a detail in another mail order catalogue.


This ATC combines a fragment of Emerson and a detail from a page in Kahlo's illustrated journal.


More Emerson on an altered Tarot card.


An iris I actually drew and painted myself!


La luna card from my favorite new tool: a vocabulary game I bought at the Cancun flea market. Plus antique buttons and a transparent copy of the background in the first ATC.

Thanks to Jas for creating http://twopointfivebythreepointfive.blogspot.com/

(she might be sorry she told me about it!)
