Thank you so much I really really enjoyed watching you creating these beautiful and gorgeous coins. And the background is really really stunning too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags

[@buckiannscreations9089]

My view is: The more imperfections, the more perfect it becomes.. Love your Coins!

[@karenferguson7662]

how cute were these coins....thank you for showing us these ideas

[@ginalovato1942]

I love these beautiful coins 💕💕💕

[@ruthsonger2178]

Really a wonderful job. I really enjoyed watching and the idea of how to use those tiny paper dolls. Thanks.

[@suerussell497]

Adorable!

[@phyllismarony8948]

Hi Monica, great way to use up the itty bittys that might get lost in a big journal. TFS

[@koyosensebe8027]

Fantastic video! thank for sharing amazing work.

[@paulinegee4083]

Gorgeous

[@DoloresJRush]

We used to call the background papers that we thought were messed up as "KaKa" paper and then during a card challenge, we had to give ourselves permission to use them in some way. It was really amazing what other people thought of our "grunge" results when we were finished with the card challenge! Crafty Hodges who created the first atc coins made her's 2 1/2 inches, but I see that other people, such as yourself are making them all sizes.

[@koyosensebe8027]

They are amazing!

[@lydiaeconomus4582]

Clever idea! I have zillions of embossing folders and it never occurred to me to use them with paint to transfer pattern and texture. It seems like such an obvious option but not for me I guess! Loved this tutorial! New subscriber here! 😃

[@louishafner3902]

These look so fun & I just adore the TH vintage paper dolls! Super sweet!! I love your grunge look!!

[@j.kevin-jillboyd5830]

Love the size. A lot of ideas to ponder. And what to use. Thank you.

[@lindahill3]

Hope you feel better soon--summer colds are never any fun! Love the coins--as usual you are so clever with how you made the coins and adding the photos--amazing! Thanks again for sharing your talent with us!!

[@marycozzensauldridge6634]

these are adorable

[@debhouckscraftycottage9288]

Love your ATC Coins! Thank you for sharing the techniques used, as I'm forever learning and this really helps! Hugs, Deb

[@rncine]

What a great idea using the embossing folders like you did, love the ATC coins.

[@MonicaTaylormadecards4u]

Thanks, it came to me when I was searching my craft stash for texture and I thought...why not? I was a little concerned about the clean up, but they cleaned up as good as new.

[@createwithpamela]

Adorable! I must make these Artist Trading Coins. I have the Tim Holtz people, so I'm all set for supplies. Love your style! And thanks for sharing!

[@64053nickki]

Awe Monica Terific ideal. I love it and I'm so glad I found you. Keep up your fantastic work. Such fun...

[@bettyphibbs9395]

[@carolvargas5630]

I saw Mike make these and now you, these are awesome. I will give it a try. I have all the supplies. Thanks for sharing💌

[@MonicaTaylormadecards4u]

Yes Mike is where I got the idea to use the paper dolls on them. It is a great way to use up those little characters.

[@christabeard5128]

You do awesome grunge. Enjoyed watching you create with your different grunging techniques. :)

[@49Nutmeg]

Enjoyed watching and getting a new idea to try....Thanks!

[@robinsismai9085]

[@PhoebesWorldProductions]

I hope your cold didn't linger on too long. Cool passport book, I love it. 😃👍🏻 Wow!! Beautiful background!!! Neat that you can use embossing folders like that. 😃 I love the concept of these art coins... I hope to have a chance to create some, soon. Yours came out great. 😃

[@sarahmiller8543]

Love them.

[@jeanadamsick9854]

HI MONICA, I JUST RAN ACROSS YOUR VIDEO. LIKE THE IDEA. FUNNY THING I JUST GOT SOME PAPER DOLLS & WAS THINKING OF DOING CIRCLES EVEN BEFORE SEEING THIS VIDEOL Do take care. Fl.

[@MonicaTaylormadecards4u]

Love the paper dolls! I hope you check out more of my videos, I think you will enjoy them. Happy crafting!

[@celiagunson1678]

These are fab thanks for the video, I am going to have a go at these,

[@peggywestrom6890]

Great way to use dolls.

[@wendyjansen8835]

A beautyful idee. I dont have so many things, but i wil try some make with my craft things. Thankfor sharing and the ideas.👍💋

[@ibkristykat]

love the backgrounds :)

[@Cyrilmc222004]

Monica, I really love 💕 those ATCs....fantastic. And I really love 💕 the background paper and how you put it all together. I’ve liked and subscribed

[@mynashka]

love those

[@lindylessard5804]

I’ve got to watch this video again when I’m not trying to get ready to go the doctors!

[@susanthatcher126]

These are popular right now.i finally just bought some thpd so Thank you for inspiration to use them.

[@sharonmartin3115]

I have never tried to do backgrounds, I was always afraid I would mess it up. Now with the help of your video I think I will try. I make a lot of fall season themed things, so I think this will work well. I have a hard time finding the backround paper I really would like. Thanks for showing that it is not that dificult . I am a new subie.

[@jocelynannmc]

Nicely done. I’ve been using my paper dolls as well. But I always feel like I need to trim them so they don’t hang off the “coin”. But seeing yours they actually look nice a little off the circle. Enjoyed your background technique as well.

[@laurelhill1162]

Great idea to use the embossing folder as a background stamp! You are always so clever! I have to say that I am happy July is here......that much closer to your Halloween series! Can't wait!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@MonicaTaylormadecards4u]

Hi laurel, Yes the Halloween series is always fun!

[@debbievignola8275]

Awesome ATCoins Monica. tfs =^^=

[@jannetteseguinot1008]

It's hard to see as the video appears to be out of focus but I love this technique.

[@cassiescreations9828]

I love these! I think I have everything I need. I had no idea these are so popular. I assume a 2 inch punch is okay????

[@MonicaTaylormadecards4u]

Mine was 2 1/4, but apparently the official size is 2 1/2. I say go for whatever size you want! Have fun.

[@justlurkingdigital]

Amazing as always. I have no idea what ATC even was. haha!

[@justlurkingdigital]

oh btw you said atc have some artist info in the back, what info do they have, is there like a format?

[@MonicaTaylormadecards4u]

It is usually your contact information. Name, email, if there was a theme and date

[@justlurkingdigital]

Monica Taylor ah like when there's a meetup!

[@liz3bet]

What is the diameter of these? I love the video, but wish it had shown the paper punch that the rounds were cut out of. Thanks. These are fabulous! Just my style. Nice job! : )

[@MonicaTaylormadecards4u]

Hi Beth. These are 2in circles.

[@liz3bet]

Diameter? Answer from Monica doesn't show up on here when I asked before. Thanks. : )

[@LadyLeda2]

I love that background technique. I first saw Seth Apter do it with chalk paints. You are a great teacher and artist, but sure wish you would dump the music.
