A series of ATC's using cut out profiles and mixed media techniques:
  | 
| Profile ATCs | 
I used the same profile shape in each of these Artist Trading Cards. Some of the profiles were cut out and glued on top of another image, and sometimes I used glued the negative space left from where the head had been cut out on top of other images. I wanted to have so many layers of paint, paper, and found bits of stuff that the original layer could not be seen at all.
I was once again inspired by, and used several techniques from, my favorite book on the subject: 
Artist Trading Card Workshop: Create, Collect, Swap
. Highly recommend it!
These cards were swapped as part of the 
ATCs For All "Artist Choice" swap.
