More projects!
My goal is to make at least ONE small craft project of any sort on any given day. This may not work out too well on the weekend due to work, but I'll try!
Yesterday's project ended up being coloring mandalas & assembling multiple envelopes to have on hand for sending ATCs out.
Today's project was a surprise even to me. Hubby was kind enough to take me out shopping for a few new craft supplies today, and among other things, I picked up more cardstock and some cool little bubble-y stickers. I received an ATC from a swap-bot swap in the mail later on in the day, and along with it, my partner was kind enough to include a little piece of vintage (1918) sheet music from a book and some French-language paper punches. Inspiration!
I just kind of went with it and these are what I came up with - Butterfly Sonata. I'm having an ATC kick lately. Very glad I discovered them - they're a wonderful outlet for random creativity. ♥

ReplyDeleteI love your ATC's. The lace with the butterflies and sheet music are fab. I have been wanting to try my hand at ATC but can't seem to find the extra time with all of my other crafty adventures right now. Keep up the great crafting.

Beautiful. Atc's and Pc's are what kept me sane when my daughter was littler. You just have to be creative when you can, the goal of every day is wonderful.
