What I have done recently...

It's not much, but I have managed to fit in making some ATCs for our Paperarts monthly swaps.
This time of the year, altho' supposed to be peaceful and joyous,  has it's down moments for me....seems if anything's gunna go wrong, it will now!
Added to which, during the hotter months, my mostly calm nature tends to explode into fiery mode! (no snickering allowed here by my friends!)

To top off all health issues around me, I have been waiting for parts for my NEW stove-top (gas burners) since OCTOBER!!!....yes...I did say NEW stove-top!
Seems we have VERY BAD POSTAL SERVICE between HERE and SYDNEY as I have been told THREE times that the parts were posted out. apparently they have FINALLY arrived and am now waiting on the appliance man to come but still not sure if they will fix the problem.


Oh, why couldn't they have just replaced the stove-top in the first place!!??


However, I HAVE managed to make some beetroot relish, chili jam and mango relish on the ONE jet that DOES work!


Anyhoo....here are the two different ATCs I made at least five of each of...hope you like them.
I have a spare of each if anyone would like to trade. Just email  me if you are interested.
The left one's theme was "Mother's Sage Advice" and the other's
 theme was "Anatomical with a Twist".

Hi Barb, thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. That's how I found out about you and could come over to see your art.
Your ATC are so hilarious, at least the one with pre-marital sex. The other one is gorgeous, but serious at the same time. It is very delicate to present a theme like this as a piece of art. But you managed. Congrats!
Greets, Manuela
