For quite some time now i have been amazed at atc's, but just haven't sat down and given them a whirl..... Over the weekend i bought some of the 7 gypsies atc's in a kit, they were lots of fun and i really love the papers but they just were not shabby enough, so i thought i would make my own in papers that really make my heart sing.....
I was also drooling over the small library box they decorated and displayed their atc's in so i decided to make my own library box and decorate it in a shabby style.....i really love the way it turned out, i even found an old glass drawer pull to embellish the box with, it truly does look like a little drawer!!!! This project was quite easy if you would like instructions please let me know.....
Since the tea room is all about buttons and bows this week and my little project is full of buttons and bows and everything nice, i thought i would share my box display and atc's......

Beautiful work. I have been a fan of ATCs for a while, my daughter started me on them. Now I teach art to children and we are learning about them there too. I made a little presentation for them, you may want to check it out on my blog, I learned a lot about them while researching to put my presentation together. Let me know if you would like to trade, I'll make yours pink!!
