...be found in the dictionary or library. I killed four challenges with 7 stamps: Monday's TLC (atcoin), Tuesday's Teapot (birthday for Irene), yesterday's MIX (time) and today's IC. I don't think I've ever found my inspiration so fast: https://www.lakeside.com/Home-Decor/....jmp?fm=search
I hadn't done the 'time' challenge yet so I searched for clocks and that is what I found. Eureka! I used my old dictionary for the background paper and some snippets. The main panel was something I had done with a Carabelle clock artist stamp on the gell plate, so that was nice to have ready. The rest just fell into place. I hope Irene likes this for her birthday card. She likes to read so I will probably do some more inside about the dictionary, reading, maybe birds. I love collage.

I have never had the courage to put together a collage. Your description and obvious pleasure in making this card is infecting me with the impulse to try one! :-) Love the time theme -perfect for a 99th birthday!

Wow, what a wonderful "time" collage card! The Gelli print image is fantastic including the fantastic clock. The dictionary pieces are wonderful and do wonders for the card. Great artwork!

I haven't yet tried stamping with a gel plate, this inspires me to try. Super way to incorporate the ATCoin. It's an intriguing and fascinating creation.

What a wonderful collage, Jean! I love the clock & dictionary theme. I love old dictionaries & have several in my library.
I hear you about the red in Target. One time I wore a red vest while shopping there & people kept stopping me & asking me where things were. I don't think I ever wore it again. Just wish I had a Target here now. Since we moved, it's now 2 hrs away.

Way to nail all the challenges in such an artistic way! Love the gelli print especially. I need more confidence I am making good prints...you achieved a neat depth there and the wonderful ATC coin...perfect image. The business envelope size allows for more creativity too. Great work.
