Parchment ATC's

I am now winding down after the Christmas card making marathon.  All now made and ready to post. Now some time to play before the festivities.  I am lucky that I don't have any preparations to do as I will be away.  Just need to take my share of goodies and that is easily done.

So I have been adding some more ATC's to my stock.
These first two use a couple of monogram patterns I came across in an old Parchment Magazine - 2002.  This was before I had even heard of Parchment Craft. The  article was by Dorothy Holness - in my opinion Dorothy is the Goddess of Parchment Craft.  I have been very lucky to have met Dorothy socially and also to have attended one of her workshops.  A wonderful teacher.

These were done fairly quickly as an experiment and I hope to improve greatly on future ones.

And these are more of the butterflies.  Just using different color inks.

Birthday Greetings

to a fellow 'parcher'. We are quite a close knit little group of friends who all attend monthly parchment lessons and workshops and the occasional little soiree.  We always celebrate each others birthdays at the nearest lesson or workshop and have been known to imbibe a little as well.
Here is my card to be given this afternoon at our lesson.  There will be cake and maybe a glass or two!!

This is a pattern by Dorothy Holness.  The colours are quite soft and the light not brilliant but I hope you can see it OK
