ATCs

The other day I was inspired to draw some more ATCs (artist trading cards).

This one is called "The Last Burst of Light."

Watercolor paint & black ink.

This one is not my usual style, but it needed to be drawn.

It is called "Clinging Chameleon."

Watercolor paint & black ink.

I recently did an ATC trade with knityoga (ravelry name) who lives in England.  This is the ATC that I received from her.  Isn't is cool?  I love that she did embroidery / string art on an ATC.

She also sent me 2 fabric postcard that she had made.  I sent her 3 ATC's, 2 originals and 1 photo copy of one.  Some of mine are hard to give up/trade, so I made copies of them on card stock.

Tuesday Tot Craft Time: Old Crafts Revisited

Last Tuesday the library brought out the leftover items from past crafting days.  It was great, because my son got to make things that he didn't make before (due to missing that day).  

He combined two past crafts into one: the sun and the hat.  

He has really gotten into rainbows lately, so he asked me to color rainbows on the craft sticks, the bunny's ears, and on the bunny.  The antenna on the butterfly is two colors of pipe cleaner twisted together and folded in half.  After taking this picture we changed the hat.  We took a 2nd cut out hat piece and stapled it to this hat piece to make more of a pirate hat.
