Today I decided to show an ATC. I used a buff coloured card for the base with a scrap of a shimmery gold paper for the background.
I added the pieces of silver edged ribbon and then punched the top left hand corner with my Cropodile and added a mustard coloured brad. The threads are a selection of autumn coloured bits from my stash.
For the topper I used a small piece of very thin wood which was cut from a box which originally contained a made chilli. I used some strong red tape to stick the wood to a piece of card to add strength then inked up a reverse stamp with an Adirondack die inkpad. The tiny dragonflies are stamped with a tiny stamp from a Hero Arts clear set.
I would like to enter my ATC into the following challenges:-
Pixie's Snippet's Playground Week 196
Try it on Tuesday challenge which this time is "Autumn"

Your ATC is beautiful! I love the wood piece and the fall-theme fibre! Good to see you crafting again!
Gorgeous ATC Barb...... love the beautiful Autumnal colours you used. Hope you don't mind me asking but are you interested in swapping ATC's? I run a little monthly swap group if you are....

Absolutely lovely Barb! And I'm a lover of dragonflies too :)
Psst, the reason I'm convinced the paper on my rocker card is upside down is 'cos of the way it was glued into the paper pad - think I'll take the hair shirt off now though!
