Not Anxious to Marry APC

I see many wonderful altered playing cards by other artists.  Unfortunately, the playing cards I have are too small to qualify as an ATC.  However, the cards in my 1919 Pit game are exactly 2.5 x 3.5 inches and they have wonderful designs on both the front and back.  I'm quite pleased with my first-ever altered playing card.

I used some old sheet music, an image from ArtChix Studio, and two dried hydrangea blooms from our garden.  I thought the text I found in a 1920s novel was befitting this sexy secretary.

Have a great day!




Supplies:
Pit game card; old sheet music; lavender cardstock; clipart from ArtChix Studio; dried hydrangea blossoms; found text; dusty concord distress ink; Adirondack silver acrylic paint dabber; gel medium.
