That's a lotta letters up there in that title! So, to spell it out, a little while back our friend Linda in the SCS (Splitcoast - more letters!) forum suggested an ATC (artist trading card) swap using TCP (The Cat's Pajamas) stamps and a bunch of us jumped at the chance. Now that things have all been stamped, and mailed, and swapped, and mailed back we're ready to show them off!
Hop along with us, won't ya?! There are only 10 players so it'll be quick! Here's the lineup:
Julie (jmasse)
Jenny (jennypete)
Megan (deborahmegan)
Nancy (nancyt)
Julie (stampinjewelsd)
Jenni (jennik)
me
Susan (Susiestampalot)
Carole (TruCarMa)
Linda (LSN)
I chose the WET PUDDLE set. I love this little person. There was some discussion a while back as to whether it was a boy person or a girl person and ALMA told us that her name is Audrey, I think. I'm pretty sure that you could make her/him either gender.
At the time, I think I was following a Mojo Monday sketch but it's been a while and I can't remember which one. She's all colored up with Copics and I added a bit of Crystal Effects to her yellow boots to give them some shine. I used the FLOWER BUTTON CUTUPS die to make the sun and embossed it with a Cuttlebug folder. (ETA: I forgot to mention that I used the BIG PINKING BORDER CUTUPS on that upper edge too.) And it's been so long that I can't even remember who makes all of the paper...I think the plaid and polka-dot are from OA, though. Pretty straight forward.
You should hop on to SUSAN LILES' BLOG now...her ATC was so hip and cool and I can't wait for you to see it. I swear, they're all awesome so I hope you'll continue hopping along! Enjoy your Thursday...school's almost out...aaahh.....
Love that you used my favorite little girl! Great bright/primary colors and the "slicker" boots are an awesome touch.

I seriously shrieked when I opened the swap package and saw this little cutie!! You went to so much work Leigh- I sure do appreciate it:) Love the boots! And I totally think 'Audrey'is gender-neutral. I really think Alma should change the name to Pat to clear up any sexism issues;) lol! P.s. my dad liked yours the best;) and where the heck did you get your swanky labels?? Hello my new idol. carole burrage just moved down a spot;) Bahahahahha!!!!

Your ATCs seriously rocked Leigh! I too loved the little Slicker boots. It's little touches like these that teach us "all" how to step up our creations! Your layout, color choices, etc. all seriously rock!
