Halloween Altered Altoid Tin




I received this Halloween theme altered altoid tin stuffed with goodies from Bizzles. I particularly like the ribbons and the skull beads. There's also some sticky foam things, confetti, erasers, and a whole bunch of stickers. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of the one I made before I sent it out :( Oh wells.

Zeke's first ATC!




Zeke made his first ATC yesterday. He made an ATC of Waybig, one of the Ben 10 aliens. Apparently he's quite large. Anyway, he'll be sending it out to someone else's child along with a small gift. Unfortunately for some reason the parent won't tell us the age and gender of the child or what they like, so I think we'll be sending some age/gender neutral art supplies.

Spider Garden




I made this altered altoid tin for someone on swap-bot for the Black and Pink Handmade #2 swap. It was hard to part with actually. When I receive something in return I'll post it.

Enviable Envies



So, above are some envelopes I made and sent to someone or other, and below are some infinitely cooler envelopes chloecrossland sent to me. THANK YOU CHLOE!!

Umm.. some dots? and an untitled tres bombtastic ATC


So, above is the ATC I made for Marie in Puerto Rico in exchange for the ATC she made me (below). I actually posted this awhile ago, but am now reorganizing my blog and thus have removed it from its original location and am reposting it here.

ALIVED and Vintage


The above ATC I made for Sarah in Australia, a penpal who sent a very nice ATC to me (entitled Vintage, below). It may be hard to see, but it does indeed say ALIVED on there; the A and D are pink and blend into the bird/card, so you can choose if it says alive, live, or lived. Whatever makes you feel nicest I guess, or the most horrible.

Hot Demon Bitch and Condom Nipple (Sexy, Sensual, Erotic ATC swap)


The two above I made for the Sexy, Sensual or Erotic ATC swap on swap-bot.com. The condom nipple may not look like much, but it actually took quite a bit of effort. A condom, as it turns out, is not the easiest medium to work with. The background of Hot Demon Bitch is also a condom. The rims on the side of the ATC are the rim of the condom. The two ATCs below are what I received. The one on the left is from Andree and the one on the right is from Felicia Artistic. Many thanks.

Sophistiseks

So, I've had these decos sitting around for quite some time now, just waiting for me to do them and pass them, or just pass them and I finally completed one of them, and I mean completed x2. I completed the page that I was supposed to complete, and it just so happens that was the last page of the deco, so I completed the deco and sent it on it's way home. Here is my page.

Ribbons and Raindrops


Here is yet another ATC. This one I made for Rachel in Australia. The card is not as crooked as it looks; it was at an angle when I took the picture. As you see in this post and 2 posts down I am experimenting with these black and white ribbons. I think I will make at least one more ATC with them, because I would like to try making a ribbon person or ribbon people.

Peace Muse


2 posts in 2 days. How about that? Anyway, I made another ATC. This one is for my penpal Botje in the Netherlands, just because. The girl is from a Mucha painting. If you're a girl and you haven't checked out (or rather, czeched out, because he's a Czech artist) Mucha, do so, because he's awesome. Sorry about the glare; the wings are metallic.

Rock and Roll ATC swap


Ok, so it's apparent that I almost never post on this thing. What have I made and not documented since my last post? Hmm... lots of cool buttons, some purses I crocheted, some scarves I think, or at least one scarf, some magnets... Anyway, I am posting tonight, which is all that matters. Above I have some ATCs I made for a Rock and Roll theme ATC swap on swap-bot.com. There are duplicates because I swapped with two people, so each person got one Elvis ATC and one punk rock ATC. Below are the ATCs I received from the swap. The top three are from Jenny/kjbrown and the bottom two are from Diane/craftaddict. Thanks for my first 5 ATCS!
