T Stands For 8th T Day Anniversary ATCs

 

Each year, Elizabeth and Bleubeard host the anniversary of T Day with an ATC exchange. This is the ATC I made for the exchange.  T Day is a GR8 Day. Done on hand-made pastepaper. I cut the kitties in the teacups from my favorite Washi tape and tumbled them to form the number 8.

In the exchange, Nancy of What's On My Kitchen Counter sent a beautiful ATC and a notecard that cracked me up. In case you can't tell, there's a Zombie crawling up out of the earth. The quote reads "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moment that our breath is taken away." If I saw a zombie crawling out of the ground, I can assure you that would take my breath away in a moment of panic 😺

The back of the ATC has a tiny tag translation from the front. Vous prenez un cafe/une boisson? Would you like to have a coffee/a drink?  Also a fun Life is short eat the bacon or the cheesecake.

In the exchange, I sent an ATC to Chris from Pear Shaped Crafting. Chris kindly sent me an ATC, though she wasn't required. Her ATC has a pretty teacup sitting on a lace tablecloth. Just perfect. She also sent an envelope full of cool bits and bobs just waiting to be used.

Elizabeth sent me a surprise ATC. A retro 1950s coffee cup and coffee pot design celebrating the 8th anniversary of T Day. She even used a coffee stamp! She also included a sheet of handmade paper, a couple of postcards, and a strip of Washi tape with birds sitting on a wire.

Thank you, ladies, for brightening my mailbox and making my day.
