Juggling life through a bi-polar lens. Sometimes up, sometimes down. Mostly trying to tread water in the middle. Creating a likeness to a normal life. Whatever "normal" is...

ATCs for May 2013

Thank you, Diane, for the tip! I changed to the Google Chrome browser et voila! Pictures! :)

So here are the ATCs I swapped with Miss Peach's mum this month...

This is "Through The Keyhole"
who's looking through the keyhole at you?
This is the inside!
It was a cat! (of course!)

Next this one is "Buttoned Up".
In the foreground in the internet image of a boot.
In the background is how I changed it.
Here's a close-up.
The make the buttons 3D I applied a
Sakura clear glaze pen over and over to build it up.
Lots of stamps and glitter :)

This one is "Blowing In The Wind":

This next one was an open themed one, 
we just had to use glossy card.
So I used a Beatrix Potter decoupage :)

This next one had to refer to Walter de la Mare.
It's a triple fold.
Here's the front:

Opened out,
a poem
(featuring a cat!)

The other side:

Lastly, the theme "April" was set.
This one is called "April Showers".
Underneath the vellum:
UK peeps might recognise the picture as
being from the packaging of
"Yorkshire Tea" :)


Hope you enjoyed looking at them. I've been enjoying the challenge of having a theme and then having to think something up for it!

Love, tea & cake,

Blogger problems



Currently, Blogger won't upload any photo's on this blog, or my others. I've no idea why. I've tried everything suggested in their 'help' section. 

I've posted my latest journal pages and ATCs on my Facebook page, so if you're on facebook, please have a look; 'friend' me if you haven't already :)

Blogger has been doing this for weeks.

If any of you have any advice, please let me know!!!
