Royal Bird ATC Swap, part 1

Looked at my large quilt this morning and for some reason did not feel in the mood to tackle that, so I completed another Artchixstudio ATC swap today. The requirements were for 6 and I made 2 sets of 3, using a different paper-fabric collaged background for each.

Here are the 3 with a black and white collage in the background and everything else you can see comes from various Artchixstudio collage sheets and transparencies plus vintage text. I'll show you the other 3 tomorrow. I think Helga (who ownes Artchixstudio) must be very keen on birds as they feature on many of her collage sheets.

. It is always interesting to see what everyone else comes up with using much the same images on their cards and yet, somehow they all end up being very much different in appearance. I guess that's where our own art shines through.

After finishing the ATCs I was ready to start to bead again!
