I had lots of ideas for this ... but then Dad went into hospital and Mum and I both developed chest infections - I am a major support for my Mum and Dad.
Anyway Dad came out of hospital last night - and I have come away for a couple of days R&R...
As a consequence there has been little time in my craftroom!!
And now I have no internet - I am currently in a cafe!!

The linky says there are 16 hours left - whether I will get any more posted is hard to say...
My plan was to make another ATC box - remember this one I made some time ago?
I got as far as painting the ATC box with a variety of acrylics and then adding layers of card - the final layer was a piece containing pressed flowers.
Another issue is that my printer suddenly packed up a week ago...
I had a couple of images printed but not many of the ones I wanted...
However I started colouring with my Zig real brush pens Tangled Rose Collage
With a bit of luck I will add more later - but...hope you will join in!!
Well at last I have a bit of Internet again - so here are the pictures I couldn't add yesterday...
I used the Tangled Rose to cut a variety of shapes - this is a splat...
I also added Halloween - a Tattered Lace die from the 2017 Advent calender.
Here are the first few ATCs that I have made to put inside...
The first one uses some of the Tonic ATC Collection dies...
Then a set of 3 - black card then scraps of a Smeared Ink paper then die cut shapes from the Tangled Rose plus some die cuts - Tonic and more Tattered Lace from the Advent Calendar.

Happy Half o ween!
