Hey, there!
Hope you are all doing okay.
Today's my birthday and I am 17 in Leap Years.
It's gonna be a chilly, cloudy day.
So, my birthday dinner will be enjoyed.
Honey's fixing fried shrimp, hushpuppies, onion rings and corn on the cob.
And he bought me a little chocolate bundt cake from a delicious local bakery.
I'm a happy girl!
So, I wanted to get a few more ATC Coins done for my Norma Shearer tree.
These are done in the same style as the first one I did recently HERE. And these also feature publicity photos of Norma from her 1938 starring role in MGM's Marie Antoinette.
I chose the photos so I could use pastel colors.
For the pink coin, I painted a round coaster that was cut to ATC size with pink acrylic paint on both sides. After it dried, I cut a sheet of DCWV patterned paper with a Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Circle die and adhered to the painted coaster. Then I added the photo I printed out after edging it with a pink glitter marker. I added flatback pearls in each scallop and 3 pink rhinestones to finish.
For the purple coin, I painted a round coaster that was cut to ATC size with purple acrylic paint on both sides. After it dried, I cut a sheet of DCWV patterned paper with a Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Circle die and adhered to the painted coaster. Then I added the photo I printed out after edging it with a purple glitter marker. I added flatback pearls in each scallop and 3 purple rhinestones to finish.
Thanks for the visit
And have a great day -- I'm going to!

Love the coins Aimes. I hope you are having a good day. Supper sounds good but please what the heck are 'hushpuppies'. Over here they are a make of shoes for men.
Lots love

Happy Birthday Aimes!!!!! Your coaster/ATC's are amazing! I love the addition of the pearls in each scallop. Enjoy your birthday, and dinner, and have a fabulous day my friend.
Happy 17th Aimeslee! Enjoy that yummy dinner (sounds perfect to me!) What beautiful cards you made with the coins too. The purple one is my favourite - I love the way the fan echoes the curve of the circle! Have a great birthday! Vicky x
I hope it's been a great day. Your dinner sounds delicious. Chocolate cake would be my pick too. And I like your coins too. And I probably shouldn't ask, but in a non-leap year, are you a Feb 28 or a March 1 birthday? Happy Birthday Aimeslee. hugs-Erika
Gorgeous art and happy, happy birthday, sorry I'm a bit late! Hugs, Valerie
Oh my goodness happy 17th birthday to you! I am sorry I did not catch it on the 29th. I hope you had a wonderful birthday celebration. Really love the vintage feel to your ATCs.
Happy belated birthday!! That’s a pretty wonderful husband you got there, making you a special dinner and a sweet dessert. What an interesting idea of a themed tree to showcase your ATC coins! They are lovely, your first one too. I snooped a bit! 😉 Thanks so much for joining the Anything Goes challenge with Krafty Chicks this week.
