Welcome to The Paper Girls first ever blog hop!
We're so happy you're hopping with us!!
{First of all I want to apologize in case my post doesn't make sense! It's been a loooooonnnngggg week. I'm running on very little sleep, survived tornadoes, power outage, and now to top it off I think I have the flu. So I hope you can make some sense of this all!}
I love that we chose to make ATCs for this hop . I made several with a Spring theme:
My first one is very simple - I cut out some Webster's Pages paper, stamped "Spring time", added a die-cut butterfly, attached a ruffle of washi tape at the top, and glittered the butterflies and flowers.
I'm starting to acquire quite the washi tape collection so I thought I could utilize that stash to make an ATC. I attached diagonal strips of tape to white cardstock, made a tape flower, added a tape banner, and then stamped the word bloom.
The last one is my fave:
I misted white cardstock with blue glimmer mist, stamped a brown branch, punched white flowers, added a yellow glittered center, inked the edges gray, and added 3 butterflies.
But I feel like it needs a sentiment. Or am I wrong? Let me know what you think!

I'm excited about all the ATC inspiration. I've heard of them but never seen any! Hmmm, gotta go check out all the others so I can decide what I'm gonna do for my first one.
Love the blue ATC! I think it is fine as is!
You rocked it girl, I think the last one could use some kind of lettering but not exactly sure what. Great inspiration all around.
These are BEAUTIFUL! I love them Amber! I also hope this week is better than last week for you.
Love your ACT's Amber. So much fun!!!!
Pretty cards. Thanks for sharing them.
really cute cards Amber!!!
I love them - the 3rd is probably my fave. And no, I don't think it needs a sentiment. <3
The third one is my favorite too! No sentiment needed!
Love your cards...I recognize some of the supplies! :)
How fun!!!! I really love all of the creativity you gals have! Thanks for the blog hop!
I have used washi tape once, but never with your panache lol, fabulous atcs!
Amber, you made sense, don't worry :-)
I love the 2nd ATC (well actually I love them all). Great use of Washi. I don't have any of that yet.
Gorgeous ATC's Amber! love all the Washi going on! And your fave is my fave too! Fabulous projects!

hi amber
love LOVE your ATC cards,infact i am in a swap just made 12 of them thank for the hop
I love making ATC cards and yours are just great! I actually do not have any that are not rectangle shape, thats a new goal to obtain one!
I think I need to jump onto the Washi tape bandwagon...great ATCs :)
I love all of your ATC's. I would leave the third one as is without a sentiment...but that's just me :)
Love your ATC's - especially the blue one. I think it's perfect as it - no sentiment needed.
I love the third ATC with the stamped branch and added flowers. It was such an "aha" for me and I think I will have to steal that idea.
OMG these are really cute.. fabulous job.. and excited to do the hop
Nice work, Amber! These are beautiful!
Liked your ATC's
Love the ATCs, I confess I had to browse your blog to find out what an ATC is, but I'm glad I did. Very cool
Very nice job on the ATC's. Amber! I think my favorite is the one made with the Webster's Papers :)
