Our ATCs revealed!

So here we are fellow team members and faithful blog readers: the end of our ATC challenge/swap. My name is Virginie and I absolutely loved organizing this event. I am sure everyone has been challenged one way or another, whether it was to make a first ever card or whether to challenge yourself and try a new media. Also, optionally,

the participants could make a little 'handmade' something to accompany

the cards...

So, I invite you dear reader to:

a-Grab a cup of tea

b-click on the BLOG LINKS (in some cases, pictures are posted below) to have a wee look at our participants' little wonders...

c-PLEASE leave a comment and/or FOLLOW the blogs, we all work hard at them...

Let's start with:
