"Parisian Beauty"
... the theme of this month's ATC swap Kimberly is hosting at artJOYstuff ...
and here's what I came up with:
I found this image of a Moulin Rouge can-can dancer, and thought, "ooh la la...it's perfect!"
I added in some type (that fanciful font is called "Rage", and it is the same one I used in my blog header and water-mark. Actually, I use it all the time on LOTS of projects; definitely a favorite!).
Her dancing outfit got an extra 3-d flounce layer of pink lace, gathered up and sewn on.
Three ATCs for my 3 swappers:
... and all wrapped up in some tissue and pretty vintage trim:
It will be fun to see what French-inspired lovelies I get in return.
I love a good swap!
Ooh La La Tres Chic on your ATCs. I am also participating and love Kim's swaps. Even your packaging is uber fun. Creative Parisian Bliss...
ReplyDeleteLove your ATCs Maggie! I will return to posting photos of all of the ATCs, thanks for letting me know you miss seeing them.
ReplyDeletehugs and JOY,
Kim

I adore the way you did the frilly can-can skirts!
ReplyDeleteOoh la la! They're lovely. You found the perfect frou-frou material for their skirts, and your packaging is wonderful.

ReplyDeleteJust fun, beautiful ATC's...I love Kimberly swaps. Thanks for sharing. I peeped about a bit and am a new follower. Liked all that I saw.
ReplyDeleteI received one of your Lovely Parisian Beauties in the mail today. It is just precious. Your packaging was a delight too. Enjoy the week.
