Midsummer Nights Pansy - CMP ATC July

Designed on a PC using MS Publisher.

I went looking for a good photo that was copyright friendly. I found this photo on Henry Walloon's blog: Life on an Oxfordshire Lawn. While not public domain, within his comments he wrote that he was open to use of his photos for non-profit, but I asked him directly and he granted permission. THANK YOU.

A number of online sources stated that the flower Shakespeare wrote of was the Viola Tricolor wild pansy.

Other recent ATCs ca be found at my Flickr site. Follow the link with the photo.

Heidi's robot ATCs

Imagination Tribe had a swap with a robot theme. I sent in these six.
The robot, ball, boy, brick, cloud, and word balloon are all from one set of storytelling rubber stamps I bought from Chinaberry catalog. I don't think Chinaberry carries them at this time.

The large R is from an alphabet set backed with fun foam but fronted with sponge, for a bubble look.

The word robot on the R card is stamped with Oriental Trading's 12-letter stamp. The ASL fingerspell stamps are from a set bought long ago.
