I have been playing with some of those gorgeous Cog Stamps, the old faithful Flower Power set and some Tim Holtz papers from the Retro Grunge stack... adding in a few Distress Inks and Idea-ology for good measure! The little roses are made with the medium size flower on the Flower Power set - stamped onto the little squares of paper in the stack... so each layer has a different pattern... the background paper for the ATC is a piece of ATC sized paper from the stack.. that Tim bloke thinks of everything you know!
I stamped the Cog background and the small set of Cogs using Shabby Shutters Distress Ink onto the paper, smudged Peeled Paint around the egdes and then sanded them... honestly, I have yet to find something wrong with those papers - they are all lush! I popped the roses onto the ATC, tied some old lace around it, added a Memo Pin with an Adage Ticket in it and then made up some of the Sproket Gears into an embellishment... the little golden arrow is from my own stash... one of those things I have had for yonks and been saving :O)) Anyways... I hope you like the ATC, it is aaaages since I made an ATC... so... I thought... if anyone would like to own this ATC... please leave me a comment and I will pick a comment at random and announce it on Thursday 12th August.. so you have a few days to comment :O)) Thanks for looking... TTFN

Makes me want to smell the roses! x
Oh Hels, this is amazing. I can't believe the little roses you handcrafted - so tedious and lots of them! I have never made ATC cards but it seems to be making a comeback and I'm getting very interested.....think I'll have to give them a try.
I love it Hels, it's absolutely gorgeous.

Fab ATC hun, i haven't swapped one of those in years either...I feel a 2 and a half by 3 and a half coming on!
I would love it Hels, it's utterly gorgeous. But you should know that I will, without so much as a bink of an eye, pass it off as all my own work. Really.
Me me me....I would love to win it. Its gorgeous.....Annette x
This ATC is beautiful. I would love to win it if for no other reason than to see your flowers in real time! They are gorgeous.
If I would want anything you made??? Surely, you must be joking!!! I would take that CD you gave up on and then made this!! It is gorgeous!! I am such a fan of those Tim Holtz flowers and you do them so beautifully!!! Great ATC!!
