When Mim isn't riding her bicycle or kayaking she is painting fish! You can see a lot of them on our ABC ATC blog. These below are silver sparkling herring for "H" = Herring! I love it because herring is such a Jewish fish! At least I learned to eat it at my grandparents table and then again when I lived in Israel. I wish you could see how they sparkle in person! Thanks Mim for all.
This next pretty card came from Margaret.
Margaret has a unique style and she must use a pen with an ultra sharp point to get the tiny lines she draws to make her zentangle ATCs...
Don' t you just love this jumble of hearts? I sure do. Thank you Margaret!!!!
Marianne sent her ATCs in this adorable pink sparkly bag. It is so "girly"! I just love it.
and her lovely note written on this Frida Kahlo post card!
I do wish you could see these in person. As the paint used shines and is sparkly especially the circle behind this beautifully detailed Iris. This was made for our "I" for Iris on the ABC ATC Blog swap.
This wonderful green/blue orb has sparkling glitter on all the swirling parts!

This wonderful green/blue orb has sparkling glitter on all the swirling parts!It looks like it is in constant motion! Marianne you are awesome!
This wonderful moon and stars ATC has glitter and little beads on it too. So much beauty that can fit onto one of these diminutive artist trading cards. It is truly amazing.
Thank you Marianne. I love each and every one. Your art rocks!!!

Teri C. sent me an envelope full of delightful ATCs, starting with this hand made card...
Don't you just LOVE her "Dazzling Daisies"? I sure do! They sparkle in person...
and this is called: "To The April Fools"...meaning DH and me for eloping on April Fools' Day (1985)...Teri got excited about my jester from that marriage announcement and zentangled this cutie for us. We never got wedding gifts so I can't tell you how fun it is to get one 24 years later!
Look at the intricacies in her zentangling!

Look at the intricacies in her zentangling!
And then there were inchies in each ATC packet! How cute are these!!!!!
It's really a high compliment to make art in some form in stitchery, drawing, painting or photography and have another artist be inspired by it enough to create art of her own. That is what Teri did here once again being inspired by my photo of pelicans!
Hers are so cute! Thank you Teri from the bottom of my heart for each and every one!

ReplyDeleteWOW what a wonderful collection of atcs you are amassing, Lynn. And that picture with the bicycle in the begining- I adore it. Memories of childhood for me. It's beautiful
ReplyDeletebeautiful art and beautiful friends
ReplyDeleteLove those pelicans!!!
ReplyDeleteThe herring ATC is cool, like all Mim´s fishes. I love to eat raw herring with unions! They are `new` now in Holland after the winter and they are very tasteful this year.
They say with the way we eat fish (and catch them) we won't have any fish left in 2050........
Margaret's ATC are divine.
glad to be in such good company!
Have a nice day!
Are you sure it was not your birthday this week? So many beautiful gifts.
