Time for an ATC update………

I am sure everyone has the last ATC (artist trading card) we made for a swap. These are fun filled 2 1/2 X 3 1/2 inch trading cards. There certainly is a of interest in our little group to swap and I am working on the last one until the fall.
The theme for the May ATC swap was Nautical Nonsense it was a fun one to do. I used a retired Stampin’up set Set Sail and the ink and cardstock were Blue Bayou, the dsp is also from a nautical pack from Stampin'’up., also retired. All my stamping buddies know how I am not fond of distressing but I love the way this turned out. I finished it off with a nautical knot made with beige cotton yarn.

As you can see I was at the cottage doing my crafting, I love taking the pictures on the deck.
Thanks for having a peek at what I have been keeping under wraps until all have been received.
