I received not one, but two tip-in goodies to share.  The first is from little green dragonfly.





The background is some sort of shiny foil with chickens on it.  I love the little added bits and bobs (like the earrings and the headband) that she put on here.  I also love the little doodled flowers on the back.

This one is from Katxena.





There are so many things to love about this page (the dude's serious face, the dimensional crepe paper, the bingo and devil card) but for some reason my favorite part is that the tickets say "drop this ticket".

I love them both, thanks ladies!!!!

So, I use a lot of pre-printed background papers for different things and, while I'm currently using up my stash, I thought I would try my hand at making my own.  The thing is, I always feel like it's missing something.  Take this one for instance:



I love these colors together, but I just feel like it's either too busy or not busy enough.  Maybe it needs a glaze or something.  Let me know what you think.

This gallery is so cool already- I love the color combinations everyone is using.  Check out my page from our illustrious organizer Katxena:





What's funny is that my page to her is a very similar color to this.  I hope she likes it as well as I like mine  !

I love how the back seems random.  I can't let go like that.  I have to center and align everything.

I got my page from Phizzy!!!!
This is the front:


And this is the back:


I love Mrs. Crow and the little bag pocket on the back holds two little leaves that come out.  The whole thing is perfect- Thank you!

I got my page today from Crafty Dame!  Behold it's chunky awesomeness...





I love it, thank you!

I haven't been working much on ATC's lately, but I'm trying to get back into them.  Here is one I made for a project in a Yahoo group I belong to.  (The brown on the left is just the paper I use when I scan to prevent that glaring white when I crop.)

I got my page from Lisateacher and got it all scanned in and uploaded to picture hosting yesterday- then forgot to post it.  Sorry about that 

Anyway, here it is in all it's beautiful randomness.

Back:


In her note she explained that she put things on there that she's always searching for in her house (keys, socks, etc.).  I am usually searching my house (and more often, my own desk) for all sorts of things so this page made me smile.  It's great, Lisateacher, I love it!

This took a while for me to finish- I just couldn't figure out what it needed to feel done.  Plus, all the other great entries made me think twice about posting mine.

This is actually in an arch shape (the brown above the arch is just paper I use on my scanner to keep if from scanning that crazy bright white).

I received my birdy goodness from Goatgoddess today! 





I love it, thank you!  Notice also the small 33 on the back...

Can I just say that I received a card today from Tristitia and all I can say is WOW!  (Actually, I said some very positive expletives involving the word "holy" when I opened the package, but I don't think I'll put those here.)  It's not even just a card- it's actually a pendant that I can take off and wear!  I had intended to return the favor when I got my card, but now I have to come up with something SPECTACULAR to even come close to making us even.....



It is truly beautiful. Thank you.
