Ahhh Christmas time......
Such a beautiful time of the year when we reflect back on the past year and with eager excitement plan for the New Year ahead! I pray everyone had a thankful thanksgiving holiday!
Time for our Dec. ATC swap! We will theme it as a vintage Christmas! YOUR call as to what you want to use as long as you try and stay within the guidelines. It can be sewn, mixed media, paper art, hand art, let your imagination soar! So put on some Christmas music and let the creative juices flow ladies!
Sign ups are until Dec. 18th with partners posted the 19th and mail off is by Dec. 29th 2018!
Have an enjoyable December!!!
If you are new to the swap here is a brief description:
Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) is a conceptual art project initiated by the Swiss artist M. Vänçi Stirnemann in 1997. He called it a Collaborative Cultural Performance. Artist Trading Cards are 2 1#8260;2 by 3 1#8260;2 inches (64 mm × 89 mm) in size, the same format as modern trading cards (hockey cards or baseball cards). They are self-made unique works or small series, signed and dated on the reverse by the artist/producer, exchanged and collected by the people who participate in the collaborative performance.[1]
Happy creating ladies! Looking forward as always to your amazing art! Thanks for joining!

I love, love, love my goodies. The ATCs are beautiful! The chocolates look intriguing. They won't last long. Everything was so sweet. You certainly did not need to send extras but they were a delight. Honey....yummy! This will be my first season to get a little from my hives I think. I have had bees now going on four or five years. The journal is beautiful. I would not even know how to start making those. It's just stunning and so very special.

Sherry, I picked up your package today and loved everything you sent.
The vintage ATC with little girl holding a doll is so adorable and I love the little trees tape
you put on it along with the layering. Even a cute little vintage picture on the back, I will
treasure this ATC.
So sweet...the hand stamped in red "Merry Christmas" on the white twill ribbon.
I had never seen such darling little "Christmas Words" printed in vintage style calligraphy
and will have fun using them as embellishments next year for Christmas cards or tags.
The 4 little pop open sayings are so unique, I had never seen any like that before and
really like them. Also liked the sweet little brown mini bags you had them and your ATC
in.
The chocolate candies were a special treat too and your small vintage "Father Christmas"
card is very special. Thanks so much for an amazing and fun package. I hope things
are looking up for you in this New Year.

Sherry,
I am so sorry to hear about all you've been dealing with. The flooding and clean up
would have been bad enough but then to have the extra stress of your mom falling in the
nursing home would be even worse. Glad to hear she is ok. I know what it is to be without
a computer at times too so that isn't easy either. Sure hope things start looking up for you
very soon and it sounds like it is.
So glad to know you liked all I sent. Was at our po box later in the day on Monday and
there was no package but we have so many problems with them as do many others. A
small post office so really no excuse but they always give us one anyways. Will be going
back that way on Friday so will let you know when I pick up your package.
Will keep you and your mom in my prayers. Take care of yourself.
