March swap in the post

Hi All and thanks again for a fantastic swap - some wonderfully wise words amongst the 31 players. It was hard choosing a winner from all the wondeful atcs but the attention to detail drew my eye to this atc


Made by Nikki Foster I love the crackle background and the embossed edge detail - its a gorgeous colour blue and the addition of beads and pins works really well - so well done Nikki there is a note in your swaps about choosing the theme for June.


As always it was a pleasure to be able to see each atc individually and I want to thank you for all the time and effort you put into creating the little treasures. I do hope you like the swaps I have chosen for you. All are in the post as I type.


Don't forget this months theme is birds and Lisa Sparkle will be along in a few days with a DT update post for more inspiration should you need it.

Happy Crafting.
