I love hybrid scrapbooking type projects Cindy and I particularly love using hybrid techniques on ATCs. But you can get sove very cool ATC designes with digital scrapbooking techniques too. And I’m starting to be drawn down that path more and more.

My kids and I have made several traditional ATC's but have not ventured into digital ones yet. I really like the idea of combining the traditional and the digital since I do love to embellish the cards with beads and polymer clay transfers. I can see using some of my digital images to create great backgrounds and other ephemera. Thanks for the cool ideas!

Thanks Shelly. I find ATCs are great for playing with ideas and experimenting. I love that they’re so small. It’s a whole new perspective on scraping.

Wow – beautiful ATCs! Each one has a special touch that stands out for me… love the little bling flowers, the birds and the font “Book of Brocade”… fantastic you included 3 different styles!

Thanks Olga and Antoinette. I must admit I am please with the effect of the flying birds and I think if I had to pick one it would probably be that one.

But how can you think that there is such a thing as too many collections Antoinette? Impossible!

They are fantastic cards and a great idea. I think many of the techniques could be used for more conventional cards with your phone and address and make them different than the usual address cards.
I love the digital one, the effect of the birds flying is terrific, it’s the one I prefer. I understand that a traditional scrapbooker might be interested in something traditional or hybrid, but to be honest I much prefer something digital or hybrid the most, as I’ve always been digital.

Beautiful article and great ideas and cards, thanks so much for it and best wishes. :O)

I like them all, so I can’t pick a favourite – from the “looks” point of view. However, knowing what a packrat I am, I go for the Digital ATC, as that will a) only take space online and my computer, b) the house is saved from storing yet another collection, c) keeps the hubby happy

I'm happy that you're pleased Corina. And I thank you again for the lovely gift.

I really enjoyed the challenge of making three different ones using the same brocade lace Anne Marie. The toughest part was in not using the computer at all for the first one. Wow i hadn't realise how much I do where it has some part to play.

Thank you for your thoughts Tink. It's hard for me to be objective when choosing a favourite.
