After a hectic week and getting christmas pressies posted to New Zealand and thankfully I have just one to go. I decided to focus on my swap that is due for the Advanced ATC group in the UK. One of the themes I chose was dolphin rider. The image on the bottlenose dolphin is actuallymy daughter Claire. I found a photo of her in the pool with her dad and after cutting him out and flipping the image it was perfect. The background is blue lumiere paint on a USPS Global Prioity envelope which I think is made from Tyvek. It melted quite well. Just added a bit of kindy glitz and dimensional magic at the bottom. Now onto the the other cards.
After asking for some feedback on the card as I knew it was not quite finished, I added some seed beads and the white fibre through the top right eyelet. Although words were suggested, I have heaps of trouble deciding on the right words. I just don't have the ability to say the right thing. And that happens in IRL too. Till next time

Hi Sarah,

I think the beads and fibre really add something extra to your ATC background, well done. I like some of Kerri's suggestions for words and think any would go well. I always add words to my cards, I don't think mine feel finished without them - but it's purely personal choice of course. I'm curious as to what Tyvek looks like, next time there's a get-together I'd love to see some.
