These 4 ATCs were done for a hand-themed swap at ATCsForAll.com. They are stylized hands of Fatima, or hamsas, with Indian mehndi patterns mounted on glitter cardstock. It's a symbol of good luck and protection in the Middle East. They're prettier in person, the color much more metallic than the scanner shows. Going out in tomorrow's mail (hopefully)!
