Vintage Nude ATC's...



Back to the classic vintage swaps! These are the two ATC's I made for the Vintage Nude swap on Swap-bot. I really had fun with these! I especially love the vintage French ad for the bicycle...so cool! I thought the mini star brads added a nice touch to complete the feel of soaring through the galaxy.

The other is just fun! I added stamped images, postage stamp, and decorated binding tape from Tim Holtz to enhance the background for this lovely nude, add a sweet Fleur de Lis and it's ready to send! Have fun crafting and enjoy my previous posts from July which included several vintage ATC's as well!

Vintage Burlesque ATC's...



So, I guess this will be the place where I display my "Vintage" ATC series that I am currently in on Swap-bot. The next set I am displaying are these Vintage Burlesque ATC's I made last week for that swap. They are tasteful nudes and I do hope I do not offend anyone by posting them here, but I do not think they are lewd or vulgar, so I am fine with posting them.

Two completely different ideas but both turned out well. I did a variety of layering papers, stamping the backgrounds and some on the foreground as well, adding brads or letters where appropriate. I do hope these will spark creativity in all who view them!

Vintage Wedding ATC's...



I just finished these yesterday and mailed them out, same image just a couple of different visions in my head that I wanted to try. I just bought some of the Distress Stickles glitter glue. Now, normally I am not a fan of glitter, but I am a fan of anything Tim Holtz, esp the Distress line of products, so I thought I would try them out a little.

The first ATC I used the Walnut Stain colour just a little at the bottom to give a little sparkle to the ATC and brighten it up a bit. The second ATC I used the Frayed Burlap colour as an accent for the background, to add a slight sparkle.

I hope you like them, if you have any questions or comments please leave them below. I hope you enjoy my blog and will follow me as I make new crafts and discover new techniques! Thank you!
