ATCs

A group I am in on Facebook has done two ATC trades that I have taken part in - a fall and a spring theme. ATCs are artist trading cards - 2.5x3.5in cards - that you decorate as you see fit.  Here is a sample of my winter cards:

I used solid grey cardstock as the background, kraft paper, and then scraps of random patterned paper.  I cut snowflakes out of the kraft paper using my Silhouette.  I hand-cut "skis" out of the patterned paper, and then I tied them with some twine (Twinery).  It was pretty simple and easy, but I like how it turned out.  Skiing is one of my favorite things about winter (anything to deal with snow), so I thought it would be fun to make cards about that.
