A Little Bit of Whimsy

These are the altered playing cards I did for our monthly challenge on Paper Traders. This month's challenge theme was "A Little Bit of Whimsy." Although I am generally happy with my images, I struggled with my backgrounds... I'm going through one of those uninspired phases where I can't seem to think outside the box.

Twos and Threes

This afternoon I worked on getting caught up on the 52 Card Dress-Up challenge for Paper Traders. The them for the TWOS in my deck of cards was "Medieval" while the theme for the THREES was "Animals".

Gypsy Music

I made these cards a couple weeks ago and they were just too simple... so last week, I pulled them apart and added the ribbons and torn papers under the words - much better!

These APC's (altered playing cards) are for the October monthly challenge on Paper Traders. The project is a "52 Card Dress Up" and each month we decorate a different set of numbers based on the topic set by the guest artist. I am the guest artist for October and I chose "Music" for my challenge.

Aces

Our Paper Traders group is doing a monthly challenge using a deck of playing cards - it's called "52 Card Dress-Up." This month's theme is "wings" using the aces. I'm still struggling to find my muse but managed to put these together this week.

APC's

I was recently invited to join a Flickr group for Altered Playing Cards. Since I've only done a few of these, I thought maybe I should try doing more.
