My first ATC takes us to Paris during the Balloon Exposition:
I love the color combination of the pops of red with black and white.
I moved onto the boy image and love how he is translucent against the blue wood panels.
This reminded me of artwork my sister created where she painted her people as translucent and blended into the background. The work was described as us leaving imprints of ourselves in places with our memories.
The next ATC features the Englishman from the Loverly London plate from Artistic Outpost:
I love this image on my next ATC because of the joy on his face.
And the ruler broke easily enough to fit along the top and I had the perfect screw tops to attach to give it the rustic feel I wanted.

Wonderful atc's Suzzane, but the snd one is my absolute favorite.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend, Alie :-)
All cracking makes, but it's still that weathered paperboy that has my heart - stunning... and I love the thought about imprints being left behind us.

lovely ATCs ~ so artistic looking.
ReplyDeleteFabulous ATCs but I agree with Alison (Butterfly) the little paper lad (as we used to call them when my brother was one) is so sweet. Love the pieces of script on that one too. Clever you, as always there is a little bit of something unique to each lovely piece of art.
