Remember the ATC challenge? The Reveal Here
September 3rd, 2010 | 
Author: The aim was kinda to challenge ourselves, share our love of craft, getting to know ourselves better within the team and to get people to look at our work and blogs. So I wish you happy blogging, Have a great time browsing through all the participant’s pictures and please don’t forget to leave comments and to follow the blogs!
I was personnally swapping with Tanya, Brigitte and Aine (at first, there was an uneven number of participants and then Brigitte wanted to make an extra card) . But I chose not to mention which cards will go to whom, just because even if it is a reveal today, they’ll still have an effect of surprise 
This one is called: ‘Think outside the box’ and is made with mixed media collage
Funny, you can see me photographying reflected in the enveloppe! I Had to make the most of the sunny day!
Nex is ‘Alice Revisited’ I drew Alice and made her stand out from the card (even though you can’t really see it here on the pic)
I love the fine silver ‘embroidery’ print on the enveloppe
And last but not least ‘Vintage frame,New baby’ made with a drawing of mine of mama and baby owl and mixed media collage
It’s a shame you can’t really see it but there is a see through plastic ’window’ (which appears blurry due to the sun) and the gold frame is really cool and the enveloppe print reminded me of a forest…
And here are my new little babies, fabric flower brooches that I will be added to my packages…
Not easy to take decent pictures but I do hope you enjoyed the post, my blog and the challenge idea. If this challenge has made you think you wished you had participated, do not despair, ask any of the girls if you could do a swap with you…why not??! Hope you can go and visit the other blogs…
Loads of smiles,
♥Virginie♥

I think this swap has been a huge success! I’ve definitely learned a bit more about our members and found new blogs to follow. And I’ve learned how to make an ATC! Thank you for organizing this for us!
Thanks Rach, you’re right, I think we got to know each other a little bit better through the challenge for sure! Loved organizing it as well!!
Jessamyn, your cards look so professional! thank you
no pb Carrie, your card is absolutely amazing, the splash of colours is surreal. Really well done!
