The four cards I ended up finishing for the CMP ATC Exchange for June 2007 (At Water's Edge). The "Year of Magical Thinking" is staying with me -- although, to some degree, the first two cards are the ones that are the most "personal/symbolic" for me. I hope they all find a happy homes.

Last month's series of 4 cards were all tied together as a series because each was a portion or zoomed view of the central image. This month, the series is tied together more generally through the use of text. And, the gathering of the text was a really interesting process. For each, I knew what I wanted the text to be - but finding "that" wasn't easy. It didn't happen. Instead, other phrases emerged in my magazine flipping. An interesting and eye-opening experience!

I love the mermaids....I really need to consider particpating in the ATC swap....I have just started drawing/painting. Do you have some beginners?

OH Amy! I love them! Amazing! I'll have to post to Flickr so I can "note" my fave spots. :)

Love them... especially the cut out words... I think that feature "makes" the card. :) Amazing :)
