Fame ATC's

Hello Bloggers long time no post  I haven't been around in blogland very much lately firstly we were away at Easter touring in our Motorhome we had a lovely break but unfortunately I picked up a cold which turned into a horrible bug, then hubby caught it and it has taken some shaking off, so all in all I haven't really felt like crafting or blogging but I'm better now.
I was gutted to miss the 8th challenge over at The Craft Barn Q & L challenge, hope I can catch up later.   So today I made my 2 ATC's for the 9th Q & L challenge the words we have been given are Unique and Fame I chose Fame as the song popped straight into my head and has been buzzing around ever since.  click here song from film....I loved the film!

The backgrounds are made using a paint which I swirled together and then put two pieces of card together and pulled them apart. An experiment  which was a success as  I really love the effects that I achieved and the texture is fabulous, the thicker the paint the better the texture and effects.



I have chosen to use the chorus on my ATC's which was too long for the ATC so I made two, tissue tape was added to the edge of one and torn into pieces for the other, I used the butterflies as I thought the background looked like the pattern the wings when magnified........or is that just my imagination lol. 


I wish you could feel them they are very touchy feely

Thanks for looking 
'till next time
