A Politician Should Have "Three" HATS

August 17th 2011


"HATS" is the new theme at The Three Muses Blog this week! and I decided to make a "set" of ATC's - I haven't made ATC's for ages so this was a great opportunity to create on a smaller scale!

The quote is by "Carl Sandberg" - A politician should have three hats, one for throwing in the ring, one for talking through and one for pulling rabbits out of if elected!!!!!

I couldn't resist using these little boys and hats from Lisa's Altered Art as I thought the hats they were wearing suited. I printed the text onto the backing paper - definitions of politician and also quotes to tie in. I printed each part of the quote onto sheer paper and tore around the text and adhered to the ATC with a coloured brad.



A bit of humour for the week I think!!!
