Hi all!! This will be short and sweet tonight! Have been working on taxes most of this afternoon.....finshed youngest son's and have DH's and mine almost done! Tomorrow I will do middle son's and finish ours! Thank heavens, daughter and hubby have theirs done thru a tax service! This is one chore I never relish doing, but it needs to be done and "husband" has NO idea how to do it! Maybe someday I will teach him.....


I joined an ATC swap that is due March 1, so I decided yesterday that they needed to be completed SOON! For those of you that are not familiar with ATC's, their real name is Artistic Trading Cards. We exchange these miniature 2 1/2" X 3 1/2" cards just like boys exchange sports cards. They are SO much fun to do, since they are small. Luckily, this group is comprised of only 10 gals. I used Cool Caribbean and Orchid Opulence cardstock, Prima flowers, MM brads and the "smile" stamp came from the notorious Fancy Flexible Phrases set from SU. I grabbed a flourish from the Autumn Leaves collection and embossed the versamarked design with silver embossing powder. VOILA!!! 10 pretty ATC's if I must say so myself. So, now, after I mail these to the Hostess, she will send back to me 1 of mine and the other 9 will be from each of the other participants! Fun, huh??!!


Well, am off to sit and watch Food Network for a while. No more work this evening.....til tomorrow!

I really like your ATCs - the silver embossing is striking! I'm sure you will love getting all the other ATCs from the swap you are in. Keep up the good work!
