| January 2026 Artist Trading Cards |
Better late than never, I like to say (when necessary). I finally sat down and created the artist trading cards for last month. This was for Jan's Handmade ATC Swap group. January's theme was "New Year" (surprise!). It took me a minute, but I managed to come up with a unique interpretation.

| Detail - January 2026 Artist Trading Card |
Nothing like "turning over a new leaf" to begin a new year. Of course, this year, my "new leaf" was three week's of sick. ugh Can I start turning over a new leaf as of today instead? Pretty please?
Now, I'll finish stitching the second Something Blue Bridal Brooch and I'll be ready to turn them into brooches. After that, I'll be heading over to update my Etsy shop for the big March sale. I'm looking forward to that, for sure! See you tomorrow.


It's perfect!
ReplyDeleteYes, you can turn a new leaf starting today!

You are the boss of your new leaf.

I love it! As soon as I saw the green leaf, I thought "turning over a new leaf" even before I saw the wording... so I obviously think it was a great idea! 😉 But seriously, that was a clever idea for the new year...well worth waiting for!
ReplyDeleteHi Lois-
DeleteThanks! I'm so glad you got it. I contemplated leaving the wording off, but decided to include the explanation just in case the recipients didn't see my vision. I hope they like them.
Hugs,
xoxo

DeleteI'm glad you like them! Yours is on its way! Sending an email, too, so keep your eyes open for it! (I was so pleasantly surprised)
Big Hugs!
