Well since I had to have gallbladder surgery I have not been in the mood to update my blog. But I am feeling much better now. The surgery was not too bad, they did the 4 hole thing and just suck it out somehow. So I have been working on some ATC's and APC's for some swaps I am in. I also found a new art, well it's new to me anyway. Cabinet Cards. I never knew what one was till I saw one the someone had altered. Then there was an artical in Somerset about them, sooo I had to find out what they were. I checked on the web and found tons of photos, and in fact that is what a cabinet card is, a vintage photo that is done and made into a card that is about 4 1/2x6 1/2. I looked on e-bay and for the most part they are on the pricey side. So I decied to try to make my own. I call them fake cabinet cards. I stopped by our local antique mall and found some real cabinet cards for $2-$4 each. So I had to have a few. I have altered 2 so far and they have really turned out nice. I may just have to go back and get some more. Here is what they look like.
