Embroidered Collage

These atcs were done for a doodle themed swap.  One of the participants posterd her amazing colored detailed doodles and I just gaped in amazement.  For me doodles have always been simply black pen or grey pencil on plain paper or lined paper.  A leftover from school, I imagine, when that was all I had to hand.  In order to make the cards a bit spiffier I used a colored paper from Melissa's swap and started myself out with a silver filigree sticker in the corner.  The lines are inspired by the sticker, but in their nature are similar to what I'll doodle from nothing while on the phone at work.
