February ATC

Here are the ATC's I made the other night.  Sadly, I wasn't able to drop them off to the Scrapbox for last nights trade so I will just consider myself a month early for the next batch.

I attached canvas to playing cards then gessoed for protection from moisture.  Using layers of paint and water, I built up the paint colours before adding the flower and journalling.  The background doesn't quite have the depth that I was hoping for but it was my first time so I will just have to try it again.  I only made 8 cards and little did I know when I started that it was going to take me 4 hours to complete them.  Next time .. something a little less time consuming. :o)

your ATC's are lovely, THANKS for sharing. I'd love to swap with you if you want! Thank you for your kind words on my blog. It's nice to take a break from creating every now and then, when I do and come back to it I often find my style has changed!! Have fun, and let me know if you 'd like to swap and we can exchange addresses.
