GOOD LUCK!!!
What an inspiring magazine! There are gift projects for the book artists, fabric artists, jewelry artists, beginning and well seasoned artists. As always the artwork is beautifully displayed and the instructions are easy to follow.
I was pleased to see my “Wishes” ATC featured in an article by Linda Blinn. I was contacted in June by Barbara Delaney, assistant editor of Cloth, Paper Scissors, to create ATC for their holiday issue. I have to admit that I was a bit stressed about this tiny piece of art (2 1/2” x 3 ½”)! I pulled out all my sparkles, fake snow and xmas stencils in June and tried to get into the Christmas spirit. I think that I made about 5 ATCs and spent many hours before I gave up and sent what I thought was my best one (we were flying out to Maine the next day and I had yet to pack!) While I was in Maine, I got an email from Linda telling me that she picked my ATC to feature on the cover of one of her holiday cards! Ok, here is the funny part of this whole story – Linda found our Maine rental house on the internet and rented it for her family vacation early in the summer. Through our emails we made the art connection and I found out that I have been reading her articles on creating art for years!
