ATCs

A few weeks ago I discovered Inchies and while I thought they were cool, I really found them kind of limiting. I love the smallness, but they are SO tiny it was hard to figure out how to get them to tell a story. I ordered the 7 Gypsies ATC Holder months ago, assembled it and there it sat. Finally, after putting up the baby gate last night, I sat at my desk and made two cards. EUREKA! I have discovered something wonderful! ATCs: 1. Are finished quickly 2. Are big enough to tell a "story" 3. Are double sided (when used in the holder) 4. Are a fun way to use the stuff I buy just because it's "pretty", not because it will fit a scrapbooking page.

I made this:

And this:

I'm looking forward to quickly completing something every day or so. I also packed up my Rusty Pickle suitcase full of cards, ephemera and scraps so I can take it on the road. Life is good :)!!
