ATC Spinner Progress


I'm feeling a bit scattered these days when it comes to projects; I only have bits and bobs of time to work on things. So I suppose it is a good thing I recently decided to tackle the filling up of my 7Gypsies ATC Spinner. 


I'm continuing to run with the black/white/cream/red scheme. It's working quite well; and I'm really enjoying the Lille line as an all-purpose catch all background. And I'm totally in love with the stamps from this line as well. (p.s. that Etsy seller I just linked has amazingly fast shipping and decent prices).

The point of this project is not that it is a means to a specific end, rather it's about the journey. It's about taking a few moments of time to slap down some photos and words and pretty paper in a pleasing fashion. And I'm happy with the progress I've made.

I've been able to use up quite a few "leftover" photos and extra bits. Using them up is way better than tossing them out. And it's coming together quite well. 

My one regret is that I don't feel like I'm using enough paint or spray ink at this point (cleanup is messy and can be time consuming). I'm sure I'll fill in a few bits later though. 

Here's some of the progress I've made so far...



Yes, and I totally am going to use up some old rubons, and some of this old hardware I've got laying around.. Well, you'll see. ;)
