I'm fascinated with ATCs. I want to make some but haven't yet. I peeked into your gallery and that was fun. I really like your variety. This one really catches your attention. I only wish you would add more details about your technique to your uploads. TFS

I meant to write more about the technique but had a "moment" when I uploaded the picture and then couldn't fix it! I blog about all of my cards at betty2dogs.blogspot.com. I try to include links to the products that I use, in case anyone wants to try them out. Here is the entry for Oct. 10, 2007, when I posted this card:
I wanted to use this stamp from the Mon Amour collection by Stampsmith for the H. So who is the Heartthrob? The man, the girl, or the horse?
For this card, I brayered black ink onto the stamp, then tried to get a good impression on glossy stock. I used markers to color in a few elements of the photo.
I embossed the H and the title Heartthrob with Antique Gold detail powder.
I mounted the card on black cardstock, then stuck on a couple of photo corners to make it look like it came from someone's old photo album.
