Would you believe that this make started out with something that you would normally have thrown out?

Well, it did! Pull up a chair and I shall explain…

Hello again. How are you? Good I hope.

For this post I thought that I would keep it simple and have a go at a technique that I have seen others do but, weirdly given it’s simplicity, have never done myself.

You all know Nigel May, Right? You know, international author, TV presenter and all round a-may-zing good guy.

What about Ken Oliver? You know, international creative entrepeneur and purveyor of Color Burst.

And me? Well, I’m just me, lol.

Anyway, pop those three together and what do you get…?

You may have noticed that there is a bit of a gap in the numbers in my ATC challenge, don’t fret, this isn’t a total and utter mess up on my part, I’m just a little behind on getting them online. WILL be catching up this week.

Anyway, the reason for today’s post is to wish you all a Happy Easter.

Hey there blogs and blogettes. How are you today? Hope you are well.

I’ve (obviously) been having a go at another ATC365 creation and think that I have come up with another little gem.

Teabag folding. That’s what went through my mind for this artist trading card creation.

Just a quickie for number 84 in the Artist Trading Card challenge but still some thought went into it.

Quite often I have a cup of Twinings tea on the go whilst I am working my way through this Artist Trading Card challenge – a sip or two on a Lady Grey can be quite refreshing! :)

For that reason I thought that I would see what I could do with that Artemio tag kit to celebrate that fact.

Good morning all :)

For this ATC365 creation I have stuck with the Artemio tag kit (it seems to offer so many design options for such a little pack).

This little bijoux beauty, created for my ATC365 challenge, was created in a flash using the bits and bobs from that there Artemio tag kit that I started working with the other day.

Hello and welcome to number 80 in my ATC365 challenge.

This creation continues the use of the Artemio tage pack in creating a series of ATCs from a common set of starting elements.

Hi there all. Hope you’ve kept well since the last post.

This ATC365 challenge creation follows on from ATC number 78 in which I set about making a series of ATCs from the same Artemio decorative tag pack.

Ready? Then let’s go :)

On my little wonderings this week I stumbled across a little bargain pack of tags and embellishments from Artemio that I thought would work well for a series of ATCs that had the same style/theme but that I could challenge myself to do different bits and bobs with, so I popped it in my shopping basket, with a ridiculous amount of other “must have/need” items and trundled off home (after I had paid).
