July ATC Reminder

Hey Oddballs, it's that time of the month again, when we encourage you to submit your ATCs for our monthly swap.  For July, entries close on 23rd July and are allocated on 24th July by our Host for July Tina Focking.

Here is my ATC inspiration:

In this set, I have made another ATC Coin, they are fun to make and I think they look so cute.  I think I have made 8 now this month.  Now I have to work out which three I will put in the swap, but maybe the others will join them in their journeys.  Although I do like my coins, they would look good in my ATC folder, but I won't be greedy. They are meant to be gifted, so they will go too.

I hope I have encouraged you to join our swap.  There is still time.  All the details of where you can purchase the images I have used are on my personal blog and don't forget whenever you are buying Oddball stamps at https://www.oddballartco.com/shop use my discount code for a further 10% off your order.

April ATC Swap

Hey Oddballs!!!  EK here today to share a couple of ATCs I made for the April ATC Swap.  Have you gotten your made yet?  

If not, maybe the video I made today with help inspire you to create a couple using this month's theme, Messy and Sketchy.

Want to see how I created these, then scroll on down and click the link to you tube.

For this ATC, I used Lizzy's Fight Like a Girl digi, who hopefully soon will be available to purchase again!

Here I used IMG434 Glitter Bones, which is one of the newest digis in the collection.

Finally, I used IMG 374, Easter Basket & Eggs Ghoulish Gifts for my final card.  I know Easter is over, but the image is just too cute to wait a full year to use again.

Need some Digital Stamps to help create your ATCs, then feel free to use the code

ATC Swap Reminder

Hi Oddballs,


Time for another reminder for this month's ATC Swap and of course you have to create within the theme of March's theme "Itsy, Bitsy, Teeny, Weeny".  What a great theme, so much so, that I got a bit carried away! LOOK!

I know a bit over the top, but I have a solution.  You can read all about it on my blog
https://hutcho53.blogspot.com/2018/03/confessions-of-oddball.html and check out all the Oddball images I have used this month.


I have used heaps of images from the Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/OddballArtCo this time, even some of the $1 bin ones, so check them out and use my discount code to get 10% of your whole order

ATC March Swap- DT EK

Hi Oddballs!  EK here today to share some ATCs for the March Oddball ATC Swap!

The Theme for this Month's Swap is "Itsy Bitsy, Teeny Weeny", so I printed out some Oddball Art Images very small for the ATCs.

I used images 

IMG164 Purdy Butterfly

IMG233 Big Eyed Baxter

IMG309 Toadstool House No. 1

and colored them in with my colored pencils.

For more on how I created these ATCs come check out ekgorman designs and see a pictorial tutorial.
