Hello and welcome to my first project for this month of July. Having just returned from three weeks sailing on the west coast of Scotland and not crafted for a little while I decided to "ease" myself in by crafting an ATC with bits and pieces as my muse took me.
I covered the ATC first with some old French text paper. It is a lovely vintage brown already so only needed a little vintage ink around the edges.
Some new washi tape was sitting on my desk so that was used next. At this stage I had no idea where this ATC was going!
This gorgeous bullrush grass MDF piece has been sitting in my box for a little while and it was a perfect fit for the ATC. In my usual style I just dabbed it with white acrylic paint and added a little vintage brown paint to the bullrush tops.
A little butterfly got the same treatment.
I thought some textile bits and pieces would work well too - tea stained lace, muslin and some wood curls, along with some very tiny art stones which looked like sand.
I always love the depth that can be achieved by using the Calico Craft Parts MDF pieces.
A lovely gentle introduction to my crafting table again after my absence and another ATC for my collection. However ..... I have a thought that this might end up on the front cover of a book .........
As always thank you for joining me today and happy crafting!

This looks so simple yet so exquisite, Jennie. I love the book text; the textile additions and the colour choices: it's perfectly lovely. xx
