Catching Up

January is usually my relaxing month when I can take a breath after a busy paced October through Dec. So far, 2011 has started out to be just as busy as the end of 2010. An emotional roller coaster of worrisome events, big projects that needed completing, and some fun family stuff thrown in to keep things confusing. I'm hoping the second half of February proves to be a little less frantic and a lot more relaxed.

I was determined to squeeze a moment in today to post some ATCs that I've completed for a PAT (Pick-A-Theme) swap at ATCs for All. This PAT was a personalized swap where each artist in a group chose an ATC theme from each of the other group members profile. Usually each player gives the other players a topic to work from, so having to pick something for each member myself created a lot more options to go with than regular PATS. More options for me = way more time putzing around trying to figure out just the right thing for everyone in my group. I'm happy with how they all turned out.
