February's FREE ATC Kit of the Month

HERE IS FEBRUARY'S FREE ARTIST TRADING CARD KIT OF THE MONTH
Throughout the month of February, each customer will receive a free Valentine's Day ATC kit with every order that they place. If you would rather receive one of January's kits instead, then please make a note in the comment section at the time of checkout that that would be your preference. Otherwise, everyone will receive this Valentine's kit fun of LOVE! Some of the items may vary thoughout the month, ie. the vintage photos, but you will receive enough goodies to make at least one Valentine Artist Trading Card.
Here's the ATC I made, but used some white cardstock and will save the Heart Brad, ribbon and extra cupids for another project:

Just for fun

I ran across this summer photo, and that I'd show you my 2 cockatiels, and our green iguana (he's peeking over my shoulder. He's 3 feet long now, so he looks small here.

I missed wishing you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I can't believe it is the 2009! I hope all of you had an enjoyable Christmas. Whether you were where it was cold and snowy, or sunny and warm, I hope that the true meaning of Christmas warmed your heart. I don't get into New Year celebrations, so I stayed home and welcomed the new year with my family. May 2009 bring you new friends, good health, and peace.
I will upload my Christmas and New Years ATCs over the the weekend.

For those bloggers who might not know, I thought I would tell you, or show you, what gets placed in every order. Every month I pick a theme and create a FREE ATC kit that would go with that month. ie. October was a Halloween kit, December was Christmas. Below is a sample of the free Artist Trading Card kit that you will get with every order in January. You will receive 2 - 3" X 4" pieces of pattern paper, a blank white ATC to use as your base. You will also receive a Vintage snowy collage picture (cut from the yourATCstore Snow Fun Collage Sheet), a few embellishments, a piece of coordinating ribbon and an ATC sleeve to place your ATC in once you have made yours. The products may vary depending on what I put together as the month goes on, but I'm sure you'll have fun with the free kit. Throughout February, customers will be receiving a Valentines/Love ATC kit. I will try and post a photo around the end of January, so you can see what will be coming with the free February kit.
