ATCs and Fur-Babies

I have been trading ATCs with a lady called Jan for a while now - she got in touch with me once after a swap we did through Craft Stamper (UK magazine). Jan always sends me very very neat, beautifully stamped ATCs and she usually gets a bizarre grungy collection back off me in return!

Here's one I did using my new Tim Holtz stamps. I added some glitter for a bit of bling - I think Jan likes bling.

                                            

And here is the collection of three she will be receiving:

I made a set of Halloween house shaped ATCs recently for another trade and made one for Jan at the same time. I made the red ATC with the bird after I did a journal page recently which I liked. I decided to reproduce a section of it on an ATC.

And now for the Fur Babies - the latest additions to our collection of small animals. Ahhhhhh, you can't deny it, these are the cutest things you have ever seen aren't they?! We already have two guinea pigs which are now 5 1/2 years old, which is quite elderly for guinea pigs,  but my daughter wanted some of her very own for her birthday. We only meant to get two but we couldn't get two and leave the last one of the litter behind on its own could we? That would have just been harsh. So we accidentally came home with three, which also means getting a bigger cage. Oops  :-)

Here they are in all their cuteness:

                                        

And finally, thanks to everyone who left a comment on my last post. I think 20 comments is something of a record for me! Seems I am not the only one with a messy craft room. In fact, if you don't mind me saying, it seems some of you are a lot messier than me!!!! Ha ha ha! Thanks for sharing. Anyway, it will be my blogaversary (how do you spell that?!) soon, so I will be making something for a celebratary give-away for one of my bloggie visitors. Watch this space. . . . . . . . . .
Right, now I must go to work (YUK!)
Byeeeeeee
