The theme of this ATC swap was Christmas, however we weren't allowed to use any traditional Christmas colours - no green or red. The colours and sponging technique of my Christmas swap was inspired by a card we made at a training day under the tuition of Paula Dobson. The layout and imagery of my ATC were also inspired by THIS picture.
