Etsy Ireland Team ATC Swap
A few weeks ago, ViviBijoux, a fellow member on the Etsy Ireland Team announced an ATC swap for us all to participate in. I have never done ATCs before, but I’m always open to new crafty things so I signed up.
I was partnered with Fi of patchworkdelights who told me that she liked red, silver and gold… and beads.
BEADS!
Before that info was revealed, I admit, I was a little lost with where to start. But, beads… beads I have.
So…
I opted for a bit of bead embroidery for my card. I chose a sort of summer theme and went with the colours Fi was keen on.
This is the result…
I’m quite pleased with it! I also made her a little pair of coordinating earrings. I hope she likes them!
The rest of the entries will be posted on Saturday on the team blog so do check back to see what everyone else was up to. I can’t wait to see all the craftiness!

Well done!
