Just Add Water

Aren't they lovely? They are 5 of my 11 new ATCs to trade with Veronica.  The background is hand dyed fabric covered with a lace cutout and tiny little shiny black beads. The theme was Just Add Water.  I decided to make a statement on the oil spill in the gulf so the back reads as follows:

Your very own concentrated oil spill.
Simply take to your local pond, lake or ocean,
insert, and watch it grow.
In no time you will have endangered the wildlife
and ruined the livelihood of 
everyone in the vicinity.

    Well, I have fixed feelings about these. They are soooo pretty and it's soooooooooooo sad that they are a POTENT reminder of the damage that can be done by what I consider GREED and STUPIDITY. The ATCs are beautiful as our natural resourses are. :)Bea
