Hey! Morning! Yes, it's another WOYWW Anniversay! The 13th, and we're, us, them, me and many more, are doing an ATC Swap. All conjured up by the Queen of Blog Hopping, Julia and her Stamping Ground. The theme is Connections...so of course my brain first went, huh?
And then a light come on in Brian (because I often spelt brain that way) and I thought of, The London Under Ground connecting people everywhere. All those miles of tunnels and did you know, there's just as many under the underground almost forgotten forever.
I wasn't sure if we were 'showing' them or not....so, I decided to show mine anyway, and wondered what everyone else was doing. I've probably got it all wrong, but never mind, I had fun making them... Started off with the map, added bits of puzzle and arrows. Then thought I'd emboss them with a worldwide postage style embossing folder, of course I had to have those little icon, like on Google, showing where places are, but I only had four wooden ones, so made the rest out of card. I've also added some small stamped coggs.
I've made nine all together...the 9th one having a different envelope as I run out of the planes and maps 12x12 paper (from The Works) I used for the others, so I might keep that one for myself.
So! I know three of them have already been spoken for, so if you'd like to swap, just let me know! Have a Happy Swapping WOYWW! (Hoping to join in later...can't get in at the moment)
I simply couldn't miss today, either. My brain didn't think that way, but I love what you did with your ATCs. They are very different and I know someone is going to love theirs. Happy 13th, dear Lyn and thanks again for the dies.

ReplyDeleteHappy 13th WOYWW!! As I’m a major map geek, I LOVE your idea of the underground as connections…let’s face it, it’s the biggest set of connections there could possibly be! Thanks for your email and addy, yours will go off in the post today. I shared my ATC, I know many don’t but what the heck!

Mapping the London Underground was a major success for designing useful diagrams. The original map is considered a masterpiece. So it's a good choice for your representation of connections.

ReplyDeleteCan't wait!!
DeleteLove your ATCs!!
ReplyDeleteThank you...yours will be there .....soon!
DeleteI think I have already commented?
ReplyDeleteEvening Susan, yes you have, I was a bit late adding the comments!
DeleteLove your ATC's. They are so cute. They make you think of travel. Have a wonderful day. Edwina Brown
ReplyDeleteThank you Edwina! The theme was connections...so in a way, you are right!
DeleteI'm glad your brian went 'huh?' too. Probably at the same time that mine went 'OMG you fool, this theme is impossible'! I had to walk around the idea a lot, and love your interpretation, using the tube is a brilliant idea, and the actual ATCs are fab, slightly genius!
ReplyDeleteHappy belated 13th!
ReplyDeleteLove the ATCs! Great take on the theme!
I'm finally done painting and am slowly getting my rooms back together.
Have a wonderful weekend!

WOW your ATCs are amazing, love all the layers of connections you used. Especially like the Google pointers - got a dew drop punch which will work for that, will be great for my scrapbooking - thanks.
