I missed the Black and White with a touch of red!


I enjoyed looking at all of the atc's that everyone did for the 'Black and White with a touch of red' so I thought I would have a go myself, and this is the result.

Handle seedlings with care


I love this one, Those little babies peeking out of the pots. So Cute. Who wouldnt want these in their potting shed?

Travel


There are some lovely travel bits and pieces to buy, and I think there is lots of scope for the imagination, Im looking forward to trying to come up with something different, I will have to get my thinking cap on!

My Little Garden


As I live in an upstairs flat, with not even a yard, this is as near to garden as I get! I do like flowers and I love the little bugs and beetles they always look cute, I use them alot on my garden scrapbook pages. It comes to something when you spend your nights cutting grass with a pair of scissors!

Cute Little Dog


How cute is this little fella, I just couldnt resist making this one (at 1.30am this morning!) He looks good on a card too and you can add a party hat and put some other presents around him, or some bones or paw prints. Good for dog lovers and for kids cards.

Little Frogs





"You have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your Prince" and knowing my luck I'd get one that looked like this too! This is one of my friend's favourite sayings, and she is crazy about frogs..... So I can safely say it was my good friend Marina who inspired me to do these atc's. The intention was only to do one and as usual I got carried away and before I knew it I had a set! No doubt when she sees them she will want one.

Fly me to the moon


I got this new stamp and was dying to try it....so I thought I would turn it into an atc as it was a shame to waste it.

Ian Fleming's, James Bond





Vodka Martini's, exotic far away places, fast cars, glamorous women and secret missions. These atc's mark the release of a set of postage stamps brought out this year all about the incredible world of James Bond and his creator Ian Fleming.
The Post Office started 008 with some 007, Its also the centenary of the birth of the wartime Naval Intelligence officer and globe - trotting journalist whose golden pen told the story of Britains greatest secret agent - James Bond.
The stamps show pictures of the book jackets right back from the first one dating back to the 1950's up to the latest retro style designs that are on sale in the shops today.

My Favourite So Far



I think these are my favourite atc's, they were so easy to make. They look so old fashioned , I really like them.

I think its time to stop, not having had my tea yet, and the fact that the clocks go forward tonight if I dont go to bed now I will still be sat here when breakfast time arrives.

I hope Im getting the hang of it now!

Ive done nothing but atc's today!







Had a great time today , just making new atc's. There's not an ounce of housework been done but Ive had a great time, and the best of it is, Ive decided to just carry on!
