For October this year our Facebook Group has a double theme . The first is the shape. They must be the 'new' ATC Coin. This is a circular ATC with a 2 . 5" diameter. The second suggested theme is Autumn but we could actually choose what ever we want and I have chosen 'Halloween'.
I must admit I didn't find all this as easy as I thought as everything in my ATC world is set up for the standard 'playing card' size and shape. But after all challenge is a challenge!
Here are my five 'coins'. Not presented as neatly and tidily as I would like as I put them on little stands to photograph them. If you do this with a group of standard shaped ATCs it is easy to crop before presentation but my graphic manipulation skills are very limited - in fact non-existant so my apologies for the odd looking photo.
In fact - all moaning aside - I did enjoy making them. I bought some new dies especially for the project and who doesn't like buying new dies?
The words - Spooky and Boo were by Tonic. The tiny wee ghosts, cats, web, spider and bat are from a Marianne Design Craftables Cutting Punch Die - 'Halloween'. The little Punch Dies from Marianne Designs are wonderful. I now have 18 sets and use them all the time.
I don't think that 'coins' are going to be 'my thing' but as an experiment I enjoyed it in the end.
Hugs

Well done on something different, I had never seen round ATCs so that’s a first and a challenge is a challenge which can work out to be a headache, but you did well, they are all different and very Halloween
