Vintage ATC's "Flower Girls"




Good day dear ladies,

Thank you for your loving and supporting comments. It made my day!

I jumped into the world called ATC's or Artist Trading Cards. What an exciting world that is. Miniture crafting on playing card size.

Here's my try.


These are fairly simple. I used old playing cards. Put some background paper unto both sides (the one on the right is with my own made background, see here). Distressed. Added white roses lace fabric, book paper, vintage girls, vintage lace, beads on the lace and last but not least buttons with thread. Easy peasy but fun to do!


It was hard to take good pictures of them. Their colours, and you can hardly see the white rose lace fabric on the pictures. Even after some editing.


I think ATC's are a wonderful way to try new things. I'll definitely be making more of them! And since they're called "trading" cards, I'd love to trade with you in the future as well. I'll keep you posted on that!

xx Wen
