Altered Oriental card ATC swap

A few months ago while cleaning up I came across these Oriental card I'd had for a number of years and thought I'd see if anyone in the ATC group would like some. Well they not only wanted some they wanted to do an ATC swap with these as the theme. So that is what the theme for this months swap was. I always enjoy doing things with an oriental theme so felt like this was an easy month. The cards were smaller than ATC size so it was interesting to see how everyone incorporated them into an ATC.

Coaster workshop

Great fun in the studio yesterday with a group of ladies doing Marble tile coasters. Although it was a full class I didn't remember to take photos until a couple had already left so here a just a few of the finished ones.

It was a little tricky getting good photo's while they're still wet but you can see how awesome they were. Hmm I have a few coasters left...I wonder if anyone would like some for Christmas gifts!!

Another creative Resin Jewelry workshop

It was so much fun to have this group of ladies in my studio last weekend. This was a mothers and daughters day. They wanted to do something together and we were all able to coordinate a day to do a workshop of their choice that worked. They were a lot of fun and very creative. They did a few new shapes that worked out really nicely. As usual for the Resin Jewelry workshop these aren't completely finished but I think you can see how wonderful they are already.

Word Canvas workshop

I had a great time last weekend with a small group of very creative ladies. They all had ideas and words in mind before they came to the word canvas workshop. So each canvas turned out to be very personal to each of them.

Hilary may have forgotten her list of words at home but once she got started they came back to her and was able to create this wonderful canvas with such great meaningful words.

Lesley decided to do her word canvas with the names of all her poodles past and present. What a great keepsake.

Sharon had recently gone on a river cruise so she used maps of the river and area, as well as names of some of the cities they visited along the way. This is the second vacation canvas that she has created. A great way to remember a special vacation.

What words would you use on your canvas?

On site ATC's

For this months ATC meeting we each had to bring a small baggie of ephemera to swap and make our card on site. We have started to try to do this about once a year because it is so much fun. Some of us were even able to make a few extras to use later in our yearly mega swap. So there isn't really a theme just the challenge of creating from someone else's stash. Here are the very fun and interesting result that happened.

It's interesting to see what someone else can create with your stash. I had to make sure when I photographing them to write down who's is who's since I see other peoples styles in them depending on what bag they got.

Hope you enjoyed our swap this month.

Keep Creating!
