Make-up Gorey Alphabet Letters/Private Swap

The theme is based on Edward Gorey's Alphabet from his book "The Gashlycrumb Tinies”. It is a morbid little book about dead children. You can see the entire alphabet here: http://www.fuddytv.com/blog/books/edward-gorey-and-his-alphabet/

Swappers and assigned letters:

Ladycregga:

This swap is the sixth in the series and is based on F: F is for Fanny sucked dry by a leech.

Bastet59: This swap is the sixth in the series and is based on G: G is for George smothered under a rug.

You should have the words of the poem on your atc so that when our collections are finished they can be read as a set.Please do not print Edward Goreys illustrations out and stick them on card. This is your own interpretation on the words of the poem and it does not have to follow the aesthetic of Goreys illustrations. Hand drawing, Collage, You can use any medium but make it really special. Also the atc must not have just the words of the poem on a background, it must have some kind of image depicting the event. So the words can be tiny because the artwork is the most important part.
