The ATCs in the slide show were made for a live swap with a "tea" theme. These are the ones I made for the trade that took place this evening.
I've been tagged by Kim of Thread Tales. I'm supposed to write six weird things about myself, then tag five more people to do the same. Well, I have no idea whether or not they'll play along, but I'm hoping that these five will do it:
First, my daughter Amy: http://www.mypointeofview.blogspot.com/
Next, Rosie Rowe, who gets my jokes: http://alteredartandstuff.wordpress.com/
And Jeri Aaron who can do it all: http://artfulgathering.typepad.com/
Paula Atkinson, who is an inspiration: http://minibookpixie.blogspot.com/
And Laura, who has a new Saturday challenge blog: http://www.layersofcolor.com/blog/
Alright ladies, here are my six weird things:
1. I have eaten rattlesnake and prickly pear cactus
2. I loved the rattlesnake and hated the cactus
3. I rescue birds that fall out of nests and if a moth is in the house, I'll take it outside rather than kill it
4. I dyed my hair most of my life, but stopped when I turned 45 and let it go natural
5. I love hanging out with my kids, and they don't mind
6. More than anything, I hate a room that's too warm, and I live in the desert
Now it's your turn! I'll be looking forward to stopping by your blogs to see what's weird about you!
Have a great day!!
I accept your tag and will have fun with it! I hope that now you've seen Mama and Fritz, your young lady might reconsider wanting to date Edgar!!! Such fun, eh?!
Love your DD's blog.. she's quite a character and the Japanese Rumba made me giggle!
Go here for the tips on how to make the ball game card!

Hi Noticed your post on Rosies entry to my challenge Shaker ball game card. There isn't a tutorial as such but there are hints and tips on my challenge post.

They are pretty easy especially if you can find a blow molded bubble pack from something to use. Take a look at my challenge post. Or you can use a normal shaker card technique just add extra layer of foam tape. Check out my post for more tips.
Also there is a prize draw for comments and competiton and challenge entries.
Plus a competiton for favorite crafted item using at least 1 dovecraft product Winner gets lots of Dovecraft Laura Ashley goodies
Hope this had helped with the shaker thing anyway
