Hi all!!

I tried something new and painted these cards with acrylic!
I was really inspired by nature and spring.










Let me know what you think!!

Hi there! I haven't made many atcs recently because I was settling down in a new school half way across the world!


Here are a few new ones I made:

I love painting matchboxes and filling them up with little things that go with the theme of the box. Here are some of my favorite matchboxes that I have made. Not everything in the matchboxes are handmade though. Some of the stickers are handmade, I made them by printing out my doodles on labels and cutting them out. The stamps are handmade and so are the felt objects and the wire bird nest.

I paint them with acrylic paint. The matchbox template I found online here: http://blog.swap-bot.com/rachels-matchbox-template/





Here are some more:



This one is probably my favorite!

I haven't posted for a really long time but I have been making lots of ATCs!

I always make them movable! Recently I've started using nice watercolor paper and watercolors instead of acrylic. Here are a few of the ones I've made recently!
