ATC Sewing

I just love ATC's My friend Susan introduced me to them a couple of years ago am I know have 5 a4 binders full of them I have often heard them referred to as minute works of art. I tend to agree. One of the groups I belong is only for ATC's they have a different theme every 2 weeks Anne the list Mum is very organized she sends out the whole years them for those ho liked to get a head .These where done for a swap called sewing I found these gds files on the net amd used a cuttlebug folder called Arglie to emboss the back ground and added 2 buttons as emblishments

Cut out Card Xmas Tree

This very simple card was done for a swap it had to be a cut out card. I used my trusty friend Robo and a free GDS file I used green as the base card and then used a piece of glittered paper behind then just added the stickers round the edge the scan doesn't do it justice I think this could be used a an very simple but effective Christmas card
