May ATCs

Sneak preview if anyone checks in before tomorrow's ATC swap at Rhonda's. This month's suggested theme is, "Hats". Anyone who is around me for any length of time knows that I wear hats and that I have MANY hats! I used to just buy them and not wear them. And then I realized that I liked wearing baseball caps because it kept the sun off of my face. After a while, though, it does get a bit boring to be wearing the same thing, so the light bulb went off and I decided to make use of what I already had.

Besides, it's the best anti-aging device you can get your hands on!

The frist image I posted previously for an Inspire Me Thursday challenge. It was a hat I put together for a charity tea event. I took a photo of it and then "ran it through some filters" in Photoshop. The second image is something I had painted (freehand) from an illustration in a children's book. My apologies for not knowing who the illustrator is; the art was done as a mini art lesson I was giving to an 8 year old friend of mine. The last image is a vintage photo from a women's magazine from the '60's maybe? I don't even know what magazine it's from. Probably Look magazine.

So, there you have it...hats.
