Candy Wrapper ATCs with Owls
This cute hoot owl stamp became the star of my ATCs. The candy wrapper swap at Archiver’s is this Wed. and I actually got my cards done a day early (not the norm!). I stamped and colored this cute little owl, cut him out (thirteen times to be exact) and glued […]
“It’s a Zoo Out There” ATC Swap

ATCs for “Narwhal Love” Swap
I used my brayer to create ATCs for the “Narwhal Love” swap. To create a fun stylized look I just free-handed a Narwhal on the brayer and rolled it onto the cards. Then, using blue and purplish markers, I drew some patterns directly on the roller and rolled them over the cards, creating layers of patterns. I […]
