The Daily Paper Prompt # 26 was ATCs - I decided to make some of these for a trade with a group of ladies I traded in person with while I was working in Toronto this past winter.
Sponged gesso on a bingo card, then painted with fluid acrylics. After that I drew the tree trunk and branches with a black pen and then "stamped" the leaves or blossoms with heavy body acrylic using the ends of some pens that were there.
I also did another page in my Crazy Cat Ladies book. These are so much fun. I tried to do a calico for this one. :)
If you've visited me this week thank you for your lovely comments - I will be catching up over the weekend. It's been a busy week but all fun stuff with friends and family which left little time for art or blog visits. So glad it's a three-day weekend!
I seem to be playing catch-up, too. Bleubeard and I both think this cat lady is adorable. He's giving this one 3 paws up!

I forgot to mention how much I like your tree ATC. At first, I thought you had used your finger to make those leaves.
