Cards 1..6 are from ChristineMM, who has a blog about her ATCs.

Cards 1..3 are completed cards. Cards 1 was from an alphabet swap that she was part of.

Cards 4..6 are backgrounds for me to add to, then to keep or pass on to someone else.

Card 7 is from my first junior high choir teacher. She changed jobs and moved to my former elementary school as I started 9th grade, just as my brother left elementary for junior high, so he never had her as a teacher.

She taught general music and choir and I had her for both. I remember studying musicals in her class. My Fair Lady, Paint Your Wagon, and one other. Paint Your Wagon is pretty obscure.

She also showed us a British short film, I think without talking, but certainly with sound. The Protagonist discovers that everyday items start making sounds. Piano-key-looking items make piano sounds. Like the British crosswalk markings, like the stripes on a bobby's cuff, like a pepperpot's teeth. He was delighted, and then the magic stopped. He hopped around the crosswalk in hope of it returning, then gave up and walked along as the ordinariness returned.

Dudley Diaphragm helped up learn how to breathe better.

Card 8 is from my high school English teacher. We had a great time in his class. One fellow student arranged "Welcome Back" parties whenever he was gone and we had a substitute. So on April 22, our assignment was to go to the library and plan a birthday party in Shakespeare's honor for the next day.

We had our finals the day before the last day of classes, so we spent the last day playing Trivial Pursuit.

Card 9 is from one of my high school Sunday School teachers. That's a hard age to work with and she did a great job, sharing her own faith and listening to our questions and complaints.
