A Celebration of Women fabric ATC

"A Celebration of Women"

Made for NZ Fab ATCs.

Reddish-brown background, stamped Mona Lisa image on calico, hand-stitched beads, and a gold scissor charm.

These three fabric ATCs were made for our May swap. I enjoyed making them, even tho I have to stitch everything by hand !!! Maybe I'll get my sewing machine fixed soon, would be nice to be able to finish the edges a bit faster ! LOL

"Mull Dooney" Art Doll


This is "Mull Dooney". He was made for a private trade with Kathy on ATC Art Dolls. The template is from Artist Trading Dolls - and it's such a fun one to use. I've made quite a few dolls with this template, but he's my favourite !!! If you're a NZ'er you may get the reference to Muldoon !! LOL

I made another one very similar to him for Marla - slightly different colours, but with the same face and embellishments - he's called "Mull Dooney-ish".

Celebration of Women

These were made for ATCs-NZ May swap - "A Celebration of Women". I didn't just make these ones, I made about 20 (!!!) cos they were fun to make, and I decided to keep going with the theme so I would have them for private trades.

Music, Feathers & Autumn ATCs

I made these for ATCs-NZ April swap. The themes were "Music", "Feathers", & "Autumn". The feather stamp is from Rubbadubbadoo - I fell in love with it, had to have it, and hardly ever use it !!! LOL The pen nib stamp is from Glamour Girl Stamps - this is a gorgeous stamp, and is particularly nice gold embossed, which is what I did here.
