...with my newest series of ATC's entitled
"Branches."
And...
I have no idea whatsoever
as to what I plan on doing with these.
It has been kindly suggested by some fellow bloggers
to join some ATC yahoo groups...
which I may eventually do
once I get enough designed to trade.
The only problem is...I want to keep them all!
Now...isn't that ridiculous!
(Any other ideas??? All suggestions welcome!)
Well until then...
I'll just "keep on a keepin' on"...inspired today by
by the lyrics of a song sung by
one of my favorite cowgirls..."Annie Oakley":

keep em all and make prints to swap....hugs for sunday.
Good idea about making the prints to swap instead if you can't part with these. I like them all. How about doing your take on common flowers everyone does - iris, rose, sunflower, etc.? Giving them a bit of edgy look?
These are all fabulous! I have a hard time swapping things I've drawn also. I swap fabric and mixed media ATCs all the time, but fine art ones are harder to part with.
The new series is beautiful. I can understand why you want to keep them all! Printing them is a great idea. On watercolor paper, prints look really nice.
wait until you find an ATC you really want, then you'll want to trade them ;)
Or you could sell them as ACEOs :)
Or you could scan them in, keep a scanned copy and trade it (that's what I do).
Turn them into cards? :)
Whatever you do- just enjoy it!
Love the ATCs!!
lots of great ideas (obviously from generous hearts that are good at sharing ...) ... sometimes I find myself in your boat (not wanting to part), so if I get a good series that I don't want to part with, I have uber-spouse make a good "display" frame & gently mount them together ... usually after a while I have something I like even better & can replace with newer pieces and can part with the others ... though I do photograph EVERYTHING just in case ... or! you could make a little book out of your favorites.
ok, I feel a babble coming on, so I am cutting myself off!
Happy Funday!
I love these! You're really "branching out!!"
yesterday I went into one of my favorite card shops where I get into lots of trouble! They have a stationary and art supply section in the back and I picked up a package of ten thin business card sized magnets, perfect for ATC's!!! I was thinking of printing my faves before I give them away and make refridgerator magnets out of them. I think I'd laminate them first though to protect the print and to make them glossy :)
We're just full of ideas!
Lovely, as always.
I know that feeling but sometimes it´s ok to let go......
I love this serie!!! Mandalas and branches! Wow so cool!
Are you a bit better? Hope so!
Beautiful! I've been thinking about the ACEO, ATC thing too, in fact I have bought the cards in different types of paper and envelopes. I've been thinking about an Etsy store for a long time too! Some things have to grow at thier own rate!
Thanks for the comment on the 50 more cats. Hope I have time for a cactus tomorrow! Lots to take care of outside.
Continued Success!
pardon me for being new to these acronyms....what's an ATC? And what are ACEO? I do like the designs and I like the idea about refrigerator magnets. that sounds cool.
Oh wow...I know the feeling...I kept every one I ever made till I sent out the first one to Marianne!!! I don't know why I want to covet mine...I guess they all have meaning to me...
I love the idea of sending out prints...and you keep originals! Wonderful idea!!!
Nothing looks lovelier
