| 12 Lords A Leaping Robin Carr Red Robin Lane |
The last Day Of Christmas (12 Leaping Lords) is from Robin Carr of Red Robin Lane. Isn't is great? The middle section is actually raised and, to me, looks like a stamp. It's really pretty. I'm bummed that this is the last ATC for this Bliss Angels 12 Days of Christmas ATC Swap! I want to thank Wendy for hosting this swap as well as all the artists who shared their awesome ATCs! This has really been an amazing way to "meet" great artists!
Wendy also hosts the Blissfull ATC Swap every month. So, if you are interested in participating in an ATC swap, pop over and check it out. Every month is a different theme, chosen by Wendy. December's theme is "Angels." A few posts back, I showed you the ATC I received from Penny, but I didn't show you the ATC I sent her. So, here it is:

| "Angels" Blissfull ATC Swap December 2010 |
January's theme is Snow/White. Hmm...the possibilities are endless!
I'm excited to announce....insert drumroll here...that I will be hosting the Dress Up Challenge beginning in January! Margaret from Alice and Camilla began and graciously hosted this project throughout 2010. I first became aware of this project through Anna at Frosted Petunias. Her dresses inspired me to get involved. It has been a wonderful monthly event where artists have created 12 gorgeous, and distinctly different, dresses made mostly of paper. Margaret has decided to "retire" from hosting this challenge and she has approved me as new host. I'm excited and a bit nervous about this! I plan to start the Project in January and similar to the ATC swaps, have a monthly theme to each dress. What do you think about an Art Within Art Theme? Pick an artist, and design your dress around that style. For example, if you were to pick VanGogh as the artist, design your dress around one of his peices, or Vincent himself. Sound fun? Let me know what you think. Here is a "in progress" button for the Project.
Have a super weekend! Stay warm!
Toodles,
Angela
