April and ATC's


Yesterday I met up with my ATC group at our favorite Starbuck's and we exchanged our American Primitive ATC's.
Joe was so wonderful and cut me some copper tubing and flattened it and shined it up for the ATC's that I made. This next month we are making Frida Kahlo ATC's. We are reading The Lucana in our Book Hag group and Cinco De Mayo is next month so it seemed like a great excuse to make a Frida tribute.
I woke up really early thinking about how to make the ATC and I remembered some black and white paper I bought last year. I wanted to make something that looks like Mexican tile for the background. I have been up all morning coloring in flowers using gel pens. I think they look beautiful, if not totally like tile. Then low and behold I got inspired to make a big bacon and egg, potato and squeezed orange juice breakfast. I haven't done that in 5 years. Lucky Joe. He had a smile on his face.
