TCP Tuesday on a Thursday (TCP fan challenge)
Several of us have gone into TCP withdrawals and were wanting a challenge of sorts.
My challenge is to make an ATC (we all have smaller scraps of card stock that we can use for this I'm sure). The ATC can be any theme, color, etc. The only requirement is to use TCP stamps and/or dies. Make em super swanky and embellish them just like you would a card!
For those of you unfamiliar with ATCS, please visit the SCS ATC tutorial here .
Let's fill up cyberspace with some tiny and oh so swanky works of art!
Linda
ETA: Use keyword TCPATC1 when uploading and then check out the TCP ATC Gallery to see all the lovely works of art!!
OK, I made a Valentine ATC, it kind of reminds me of the cute little valentines that I sent when I was a kiddie, but there weren't cute Sprinkle images around back then.
Oh so cute Chris!!! I love making Valentines... just not ready yet! But you may have started something!

Ok, I got my first ATC finished (I have several sets pulled that I need to play with). I had a real moment of panic when I couldn't find my Build a Bingo set (had to semi clean my stamp room and everything). I used the Chalkboard technique on the Bingo set.

C'mon JenniK! You know you wanna play on this one! Just play around with the elements before you adhere them. And remember, cutting up sentiments helps too sometimes (if using a sentiment on the ATC).

that chalkboard look is very cool, and you've picked one of my fav Sprinkles stamps (did you just say the same thing?). It's a good size for the ATC.

Hope you feel better soon KJ! I know what you mean about being cold. It is currently 22° F here in Colorado Springs. I am currently in a recliner with a down throw and a tablet watching TV and surfing the net. I feel so bad for the kitty who is outside sleeping on a chair on my back deck. He is a ferel stray (one that is at least used to humans and being pet and such), but every time I try bringing him inside, he starts to freak out a little when he can't get outdoors. So I have lots of blankets for him to nestle in and he is somewhat protected from the elements (coverage overhead and some wind is blocked, etc.). He gets fed lots of food (he is a very well fed stray kitty ) and fresh water and pets from me and the kids, so I guess he has it pretty good compared to most.
Oh well...off on a total tangent there! . Get to feeling better soon!

LOL! That is how my "tame" Lucy acts... She REALLY is a bit Freakazoid-ish!!!! She's getting better at least now when we have people over you KNOW we have a cat... don't think about TOUCHING her, but you can SEE her... back there tucked behind Dave's chair! She does NOT sit on your lap but has now begun to sit on the arm of Dave's chair, you just have to sit REAL STILL!!!!! Well, I should say HE does, she won't do that with me....

Linda, how nice of you to be taking care of an outdoor cat! The group I volunteer with builds tons of cheap cat shelters each year, as our WI winters can get pretty awful. Here's the instructions if you want to build a little wind-shelter box for him, and have a styrofoam cooler around:
Build your own feral cat shelter ( PDF ) - two set ups, plastic storage and styrofoam

Yikes, hope you're feeling better KelliJo! There are yucky things going around and it seems to take forever to get well! Lots of rest (yeah, I know ha!) and tea (works for me). XO!
Hey, let's add a keyword or something so we can put a gallery link, that ok Linda?? How about TCPATC1?!
