It's for House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge!
***NEW CHALLENGE ***
Our mega talented Teamie, Stacy Morgan is
hosting and she wants to see you create an ATC Turn-About. What that basically
means is that you will take your ATC and turn it into a card creation. Easy
Peasy, right?
If you are not familiar with what an ATC is, let
us explain;
It is a miniature work of art with an approximate size of (2 ½ X 3 ½ inches), or, (63 mm X 89 mm). It is small enough to fit inside standard card-collector pockets, sleeves or sheets. The ATC movement developed out of mail art and has its origins in Switzerland. These mini Cards are produced in various media and usually traded or exchanged rather than sold. The sky is the limit in this fun art. So give it a go!!! :)

Here's my contribution:
Of course, I HAD to make an ATC first!
Just so I'd get it right; and of course it's October, so of course I'm in Halloween mode!
I used my newest toy, my label maker, to make the sentiment!
(Actually I made a few, different sized fonts you know!
Now I'll have to make some more cards to put them on!)
Well there you have it!
You still have over a week to play along!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

I don't know where to start... such a FABULOUS card! The image is so, so sweet... all the little details - so much LOVE!

I just love those cute little mice and yours is no exception. Love that you made your card around the ATC you created. Just gorgeous.
Thanks for popping in over the weekend. The chocolate slider tutorial can be found by googling it, but I had to change it to fit our chocolate blocks. These are my measurements, just slightly bigger than the ones I originally followed. You need a piece of card or D/S paper/card ~ 9 1/2" x 9" score the longest side at 1/2", 4!/2", 5" and 9". Turn around and score across one end only at 1/2" Fold all score lines, cut at bottom to create little flaps and then fold into box, glue side first and then close up base and glue. Hold top ends together and punch with hole punch or slot punch - thread through a piece of ribbon that is double the length of the box plus 10cm and then knot. Put your chocolate in and that makes the ribbon go down. Pull on ribbon to make the chocolate appear!!!
Just found this tutorial tonight, it has several sizes, hope these are helpful http://www.creationsbymiriam.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/chocolate-treat-box-tutorial.pdf

Just so darn cute. The image is sweet, but you have done a fabulous job in showcasing it with all of your embellishments. I love the stars on your sentiment piece also.
Yet another outstanding HM card (or ATC in this case!). I love this image and it is perfect for this size. Awesome job! Hope you are doing well! Hugs, Curt

Hi Gail , sorry I missed this one as I love ATCs and make a few when I have spare time .Used to swap some but I can be a bit unreliable time wise so had to give that away ..now I just make them for relaxation .Some times I bag them up and give them away as card toppers .Love mice images ..definately not real ones though .Love your card here with the punched leaves and frame for sentiment .
