ATC JAM

Carol Sweeney asked me to participate in an ATC JAM. She was sent 3 ATC backgrounds made by Stephanie Povey that had torn printed paper and had been spritzed. Carol added the butterfly - instructions can be found here - I decided to make a paper bead which I wrapped in wire and added a pink seed bead to, then I coated the bead in clear UTEE. When this was cool I cut 2 lengths of gold 20 gauge wire and threaded them thru the bead then using pliers carefully made the coils and bent them into shape until it looked right. I also added some german scrap and edged the ATC's with black Staz-On ink pad. I keep one then send the other two back to Carol and Stephanie. Hope both the girls like the outcome....
