I don't know where I've been all this time but I'm just now getting hooked on making ATCs...little tiny works of art that you can make in an hour. How fun. I just joined illustratedatcs.com and wow some of their work is amazing. I can't wait to trade for some hand painted birds or flowers! Here's the ones I've been making. And man am I having fun! I even took one to my hair dresser today when I went in for a trim and I got my bangs trimmed for free! That's a trade, right *LOL*
Other than a little talent passed on to me by my grandma, Pearl, I am a do it yourself kinda gal and like to figure things out on my own most of the time. When that doesn't work I take an online workshop. We live on 3.5 forested acres with a breathtaking view of Mt.Hood.
“To live content with small means... To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion... To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich... To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly... To listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart... To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never... In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common; this is to be my symphony.”
