ATC Card Swap

It's a beautiful day in Los Angeles, lately there's been rain, wind, and cold temperatures. We rarely get this kind of weather and when we do, we really enjoy it.  Here are some pictures of the rain from inside the train:
 



I had a fun and busy weekend.  Saturday I spent the day with my BFF's in Downtown San Diego.  We shopped, had lunch at a 1800's style Haunted Saloon (our waiter was a Johnny Depp look alike, ahm) and we laughed like silly women all day long.  Don't you just love spending time with your girl friends?  I guess it's because I have two growing boys and an incredibly handsome and very macho husband (my macho man) that spending time with girls is always something I look forward to.

Sunday I spent the day with my crafty friends and it was my turn to demonstrate a technique, I decided on my favorite medium,  Acrylic paints.  Afterwords, we all swapped Artist Trading Cards (ATC). The pictures below show all ATC swapped.

Theme: "Masculine"
From left to right: Tina Rivas, Rose Rodriguez, Misty Grosse
Carmen, Kim Lamos, Ally Sanchez and the last one in the corner is mine "Admit One".

 Cheryl Shoats, Pat (argyle sweater) and Esther (football card).  Esther included a miniature chalk board to write messages on, very fun idea.
Hope you liked these ATC cards, I'll be posting more next month.  I'll do my best to visit all my bloggie friends this week, see you soon.
