Musical Postage 1 Musical Postage 2 Musical Postage 3

Here are three ATCs I made a while ago for a music swap hosted by Vikimouse. That was right before her domain disappeared so I never got to swap them. ATCs are Artist Trading Cards that are 2.5″ x 3.5″ made from whatever materials you are comfortable working with. They are always swapped never sold. Basically you can collect your own mini pieces of art. I think they are awesome and will probably make some more to trade. You can leave me a comment if you are interested in doing a swap for any of these cards or just tell me what you think of them. You can head over to Craftster to find out more information about ATCs.

Hope you all have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I will be away with family but I’m going to delay three or four posts today so you’ll have something to read over your holidays. I’ll take pictures of our festivities and be sure to give you all an update when I get back.

I am so thrilled to have gotten this layout completed today. This site has been a while in coming and I am greatly inspired now that I have it done. I have been wanting to change over to a new site for a couple of years now. My old domain was created when I first started websites years ago and was very teen. Chic was what I needed. And every since I found Stacey’s blog over at Stacy Sews I’ve been inspired to learn how to sew clothes and share my crafty adventures. Plus I started reading blogs on a consistent basis and have been guiltily glancing at my old blog and the dust that had gathered. So I’m setting off into the blogging world with a brand new layout and lots of anticipation. Wish me luck!
