I just completed a series of ATCs called Taking Liberties. I usually suck at titles but I'm really pleased with myself over this one. Each card has a constitutional right as its base:
That's the 1st Amendment, 4th Amendment, Due Process Clause, and Habeas Corpus.
Then each right is gradually obscured by a series of vellum sheets. Each sheet has images of people who have diluted the right, or examples of the right being denied:
Until finally, you're left with no view of the right at all:
These took a long time to put together, but I'm happy with the concept and the result. I don't often get to combine my work-work and my political views with my crafts.
Now, how many of the images on the vellum can you recognize?

These are really cool. And hey, it's Georgie Porgie!!
