<\/a>\nWhen I got this
\nstamped image
\nfrom Glenda I
\nneeded just one
\nlook to know:
\nthis is Mrs. Jones!<\/p>\n
You know that song
\nby Billy Paul?
\nI think this is her…
\n(although my son
\nthinks that the Mrs.
\nJones in the song
\nis a black woman)<\/p>\n
Ah well, never mind what kinda woman Billy had in mind when he sang
\nthat song – or what she looks like in real life – to me THIS is Mrs. Jones!
\nAnd so I used the image for yet another Music ATC.<\/p>\n
btw, did you ever visit ATC the Music<\/a>? You should! I started making ATC’s in August last year.\u00a0 Only occasionally at first – but Here’s the first little “bag” I made – this one contains my “for trade” ATC’s. I also made a “for trade” folder in my gallery (which is on top of this blog – And – surprise surprise \ud83d\ude09 – here’s some zentangling! Page 14 and 15 already!<\/p>\n The pages I cut on forehand to put in my zentangle album are almost filled, Here are the same pages with page 10 visible behind the rounded corner on the HAPPY MAIL!!!<\/p>\n Amy send me this And that’s all for today! – A Year in the Life of an Art Journal<\/a> (new challenge\/word “Un”)<\/p>\n – Gutter Girlz<\/a> prompt #35 (spoke to me as soon as I saw it!)<\/p>\n – Fave things<\/a> challenge “My favourite drink” – hmmmm<\/p>\n
\nLinda Pearson – a very sweet and talented girl – is the founder of ATC the Music
\nand she posts a music ATC every day along with the songs.
\nAnyone who wants to play along is welcome, so if you have an ATC
\nthat handles a particular song: send it to Linda! The info is all on the blog…<\/p>\n
\nsince I discovered ATC the Music and started trading them I got hooked
\nand I have build up quite a pile of these little fellas… so when I saw a picture
\nof a “ATC pouch” on Michelles blog I thought it would be a nice solution
\nfor my pile (That’s not the good word. It’s more like “ATC’s all over the house”)<\/p>\n
\nI’m planning to make FOUR of these little bags: this one (as said: for my
\n“to trade” cards) one for ATC’s I get from others, one for Music ATC’s and
\none for… uhm, the miscellaneous ones I guess.
\nI already sewed all the basic bags so I just have to alter them with flowers,
\nfabric, embroidery and I even found my old textile pens, YAY! FUN!<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nsee “ATC’s\/Cards”) but there’s not much to trade yet… I hardly ever made
\nmore then one ATC at a time (except if it was for a swap) but I will make double
\nor triple cards from now on, so the gallery can be filled up with cards to trade.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nright now I’m working on the last ones. I will cut and add more pages to the
\nalbum this week ’cause I can’t quit this doodling in the evenings.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nleft. Because I cut the pages in different shapes, the images change every time
\nyou turn the page.\u00a0 I could take lots and lots of pics of the changing pages but
\nit would become a little too much to publish it all!<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nAnd look what the
\nmailman brought
\nme today!<\/p>\n
\nfor participating in
\na little game she
\nplayed on her blog.
\nShe stuffed the
\nenvelope with all
\nkinds of sweet little
\nthingies… some
\nbuttons, journaling
\npads, stickers, vintage paper and last but not least, OLD STAMPS!
\nI’m in love with those old stamps!!!
\nI can see myself use these on some ATC’s in the very near future!
\nThank you so much AMY<\/a>!!!!<\/p>\n
\nI still got three little ATC-bags to go and also on my “to do list”:<\/p>\n
