TMTA - Metal


This week's Think Monday Think ATCs theme is: Metal. We are to use metal in our ATC art. These two ATCs started as beige card stock which I stamped with Archival brown and black inks, using a couple of my hand carved stamps. The metal on them is HVAC metal tape run through a Cuttlebug folder and colored with alcohol inks. The cat was also colored with AI.

Today is International Women's Day. I used two qualities that I think have helped women achieve so much and may not be qualities that anyone else would choose. Both qualities are things I am still, at my advanced age, trying to acquire more of. I do know that being resilient and forgiving have helped me in my almost 53 years of marriage.
