This is the ATC I made for our art club swap in January. I used a clothing tag as my base. I cut out the starburst that was in the center of the circle on the tag. I chose this face from graphic45's Curtain Call collection to show through the opening. The little tag at the top left of the circle is from 7gypsies. I edged it with red ink and attached it to the tag with red eyelets. The image on the little tag is from a photo I took in the Metro in Paris this past Sept. I used a thumb nail print and cut it in half to attach it to the tag. Next I placed the flower next to the circle and attached it with a rhinestone brad. I used Cavallini's number tape to go down the side od the tag and added "Cirque" to the name on the tag. (This tag went to my dear friend Sara.)

This tag has images from one of Sandy Gordon's art sheets that can be purchased and downloaded from her web site. I love these strolling ladies and imagined they were from MA's era. I placed a Paris postmark in front of the leading stroller and then attached the second lady in the foreground to add dimension to the ATC. I entitled this one "Strolling through Paris". (This one went to Jean, a dear lady that I have been trading with for years...........we met online in one of her ATC trades.)

This is my ATC for a personal trade that I have done for years with a very close and dear friend, Judi. It was February and time for a little Valentine. ") I used the image of the little girl from the stamp collection "Polaroid Cutie". I cut around the image in a heart shape. I placed a strip of watercolor paper that I had used some metalic paints on along the left edge of the ATC and a piece of script paper on the right side. I attached the heart to the ATC and added the XO sticker in the upper right corner. I took apart a heart earring and added the open metalwork heart next the the image. Next I outlined a ticket with a red marker and cut a rectangle from the center so I could put a word ticket behine the slit. I mounted the tickets together with dimensional tape. I added red rhinestones to the ticket and attached it to the bottom of the ATC as shown. Next I stamped a small red heart in the bottom right corner. Finally I added some clear rhinestones to the ATC.
