For the love of "Zetti" :)

I am a faithful visitor to Marion's Blog and she is offering an ATC exchange that I just couldn't turn down. The theme is Zetti. Zettiology is a rubber-stamp company that offers these marvelous haunting images with rubber stamps and collage sheets. I've always been drawn to them.

These are my creations for the swap. The backgrounds are created with etched household aluminum foil that has been painted with acrylics and alcohol inks. (the picture isn't that great due to the glare factor with the foil).

I really enjoyed getting back to ATC's and I loved getting out my favorite Zetti image and altering her a bit to add to my backgrounds.

Thank you, Marion, for a fun offering!

Wishing you all a safe, joyous, and artful weekend! News flash! It's NOT raining today! Yet - anyway :)

Much love to all of you.........................Marilyn xxoo

Love the ATCs, Marilyn -- I've always wanted to get involved with other fiber artist in trading these. It's amazing what you do with just 24 square inches -- or is it less???
