I've was having a bit of a clean up of my work desk and started putting together a pile of off cuts, bits and pieces left over from previous projects.  You can see here I have been playing with blue tones and angels for my previous Christmas Projects.  I have to admit these are my favourite at Christmas.  There were collage images already cut out, stamped sentiments and embellishments along with a few scrap papers and cardstock.  So I decided to work with these items and turn them into a few quick Christmas ATC's.   I started with some cardstock bases and my Gelatos.  Three tones of blue were simply scribbled over the background.   I then took a baby wipe and blended the color across the card.     Next I took a small stamp of a star like image and some Navy Archival Ink and randomly stamped this across my background.   Taking some of the paper scraps and off cuts I layered these onto my card base.   ...

Hi everyone!  Robin here today and I've got a trio of dragon pieces to share with you.  This month Altered Pages has partnered with Faerie Song Art Stamps and the design team has been sharing some great fantasy artwork with you. I used two very fun dragon stamps from Faerie Song Art Stamps to create a clean-and-simple greeting card, a tag and an ATC.  There were supposed to be "in progress" photos to share but my computer was mimicking a hungry dragon and ate my camera's memory card!  Here are the completed pieces.
