Old September Lessons (part 2)

I just completed this year's version of Shimelle's Learn Something New Everyday Class, but before putting it completely behind me, I wanted to post a few more ATC's from the last time I did the class (in 2007). This batch of ATC's from the second half of September didn't follow the prompts too much, but they did use some interesting new techniques (since I was using the class to learn some new techniques - maybe even one a day).
The first ATC "Blotted Jester" used an inkblot technique from Somerset Studio. The second, very autumnal tag used layered vellum (with some punchies stuck in between).  The third for Sept. 18 was my tribute to "International Talk Like a Pirate Day" (one of my favorite holidays that I all but missed this year). The green tulip ATC used the "glass like resin" technique from Bernie Berlin's book ATC Workshop.  It was inspired by the prompt to learn something from nature. The final ATC "Celebrate" was created using a postcard/flyer I found on the street.  It was advertising a band that played "Mexi-cali Gypsy Pirate Polka."  How cool is that!
