Collections Elements Class

Today I had a class with Julie Van Oosten owner of Collections Elements.

We made 2 cards & a Card Folder which I loved.

It is big enough to hold a couple of cards or a Notebook

Here are some pictures -

Another couple ATC's

I haven't made ATC's for ages.
have mixed feelings about making them
It is difficult for me to work on "small things"
I have no patience !!
When I am creating an ATC I have the
problem of when to stop adding stuff.
Also because they only take such a short time to make
it's like, is that it ???
Anyway here are another couple & am off to
make some more.
Got the bug now.

These 2 were made using -
Collections Elements Tissue Paper
Collections Elements Labels
Tim Holtz Distress Stains
