If I Joined the Circus ATCs

These atcs are for my Roses on My Table exchange group. When the theme was posted, I drew a total blank. Fortunately I remembered some adorable circus vintage graphics on The Graphics Fairy http://graphicsfairy.blogspot.com/. I photoshopped in my face at five years old (from my kindergarden school photo), added some swirly trim and a circus tent, a blue sky with puffy white clouds, then blinged it up with modgepodge, Pearlex powder and gold dimensional paint. Silly and fun! I think my favorite is the one with the little dogs.

Edzellinni aka Linda Edkins Wyatt said...: Thanks Janet! Of course, a five-year old Linda would have fallen off the horse, but I can dream...; July 8, 2012 at 2:39 PM
