They like the best ones. Eat a few bites and toss them down.

First day of Spring and it is snowing -

which made it a very good day to watch my Farmville Feed and work on some new images for Qwikart.

These images will be 1×1 inchies or 2×1 in size. Some will be black on white and some inverse (black or your ink color with white design).

Here is a mock up that looked okay until I scanned it. Glued on crooked. My scanner is acting up making the pc unstable. I have spent the afternoon trying to get things working – setting the date back several times, removing and installing all the affected programs repeatedly. Afraid to unplug it from the pc and attach to the mac for fear it will mess the mac up too.

I am trying to decide whether to use a border around the images. I think they are more cohesive as a whole with out a border. The color of the background paper provides a border. Tell me what you think? Here are a few of the images:

Definitely not a jolly time …

January ATC

Some one asked me to post a sample of a calendar ATC. I will be making my ATCs slightly different as I don’t have enough of any one item. The one shown needs to get the Stickles applied before it is finished. I choose to make them portrait style to fit the embellishments I am using. The card stock is the same front and back, just looks different because of the lighting on the embellished side when scanned.

The front side.

The back side.

December mail

Gift card

I thought this was ever so clever. It is a regular tag folded with a slot at the top to tuck in the front and close it. The inside has a message.
