Holiday ATCs

I haven't posted in a while because I've been busy traveling for work.  It is hard to make art while in hotels.  For this "Merry Christmas" atc swap, I decided to use just the supplies I could pack into a gallon size zip top bag in my checked luggage.  I stamped some random snowman images and text onto card stock before I left home.  I took some holiday themed papers and ended up cutting up magazine pages to get colored paper for the tree and stable.  All other elements are hand drawn.  Ink pens, color pencils and watercolors were used to color the images and to paint the backgrounds.  Some of the elements were completed using Glossy Accents and glitter glue.  The finished card had to be backed with another piece of card stock because the watercolor made them flimsy.
