Well, these are the first ATCs for the Canadian swap that I'm planning to participate in. As I mentioned before, I'm going to try to use different techniques on each one of them (I have to send in 9). The bird is done with watercolor pencils with a wee bit of ink on the wisps of the plant. The "Peace Is Possible" card has a background made of paper towel painted with Lumiere paint, a postage stamp, words typed on my really old manual typewriter, and a bird image cut from an old greeting card. And the last card has a chalk background with a stamp that has been colored in with colored pencils (my apologies - I haven't recorded where Any of my stamps came from, but I will start doing that), stamped words, and a small charm glued in the corner.
I don't know what I'm going to do next - maybe a few different transfer methods. Suggestions are always welcome!

Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment on that "big headed girl" collage I did. LOL
Again, so much meticulous work. I would hate to swap these but then again, that is the pleasure of doing it. Your work is incredible!
