Hey girls, with the holidays fast approaching I am changing the sign up end date for NOVEMBER 10th....
HERE WE GO GIRLS!!! EACH OF US GIRLS WILL MAKE 12 NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS ATC'S>>>>SEND ALL 12 TO ME AND I WILL MAIL OUT THE ATC'S IN A CARD HOLDER LIKE FUTTERS DID. I WILL SEND EACH OF YOU MY ADDRESS SO YOU WILL HAVE IT. PLEASE SEND THEM TO ME AS SOON AS YOU FINISH>>> THANKS< MERRY CHRISTMAS< AND SMILES, BETH
Hey Girls, Going on Futters and Mommaswanson lead, those ATC are so much fun! :), so I thot about making one based on the poem "The Night Before Christmas" by Clement Moore. How you will do it, is to take any part of the poem and make your ATC picture that part of the poem, for example, "The stockings were hung by the chimney with care..", You could do your ATC with a chimney with stockings on it and put your swap partners name on one of the stockings. Get the idea?
Sign up ends November 10th and send out by ASAP or December 6th..
If there are a lot to sign up, we might do them in groups..
You may mail them to me and I will get them out to you.....Please, when you sign up send me your address via my email.....:)
Let's have fun!! Smiles, Beth

Beth sent me a set of cards-just beautiful. I pulled out-just blank-couldn't think of a thing. Wanted to let you all know how beautiful they are. Makes quite a display all together. I am enjoying them. Maybe by next month I will think of something. Thanks for including me Beth.

Beth, I think it's wonderful that you still sent the ATC's on! What a great thing to do! They're so beautiful - they are so full of the joy and love that they were made with - they should be shared! That's what Christmas spirit is all about! Thanks again for all you have done with this swap - you're the best! Hugs - Nini

Just an update....You were asked to make 12 cards as 12 girls signed up...At the end, one had to pull out and one farmgirl just didn't get hers to me.....I had already received 12 from a lot of you and had made out envelopes for all 12, anticipating that I would receive all the participants cards...When I sorted them out, I filled out all the envelopes and sent them all, thinking it might be an encouragement to the one farmgirl who had to pull out and I forgot to pull out the envelope for the girl who failed to notify me whether she forgot or could not. That is why you received 10 cards instead of 12. Smiles

Hi girls! Oh my gosh - I received my ATC's today and am completely enamored with them! I have them in my MJF Farmgirl ATC binder, and keep sneaking peeks and stares whenever I get a free second to myself. I just absolutely love them - they're beautiful - delightful! I will treasure them always! Deb said my sentiments perfectly - you've made my Christmas the best ever, and you're all in my heart. I'm so, so grateful for each and every one of you! God bless!!!
Thank you so, so much to you, Beth, for hosting this incredible swap, and to all of you wonderfully talented and creative Farmgirl Sisters for these incredible keepsakes! I really, really will treasure them always!
Hugs - and Merry Christmas to All!

Thank you farmgirls for all the fun and acceptance I have had since joining MJF...I was a retired, diabled school teacher that needed an outlet for crafting and news of everyday living all around the country. I have found it here and it has been so wonderful...Thank you and have the Merriest of Christmases and a Happy,Crafty New Year....Smiles.....Beth

WOW!!!!!!! Oh my goodness, I received my ATC's today! I cannot stop looking at them. Each and everyone is beautiful. Like my other farmgirl sisters, I too, have started a binder that holds them all beautifully. Sisters, I will treasure each and everyone for as long as I live.
When it comes to creativity, you ladies are over the top!
I forgot to let you ladies know that the little tag on the front of my ATC opens. I really enjoy doing making the ATC's. Will we be doing one for Valentines Day! I hope so.
Friends, I want you to know that after 57 years, I would have to say this has been my best holiday season. All because you are here, right here in my heart and I value your friendships.
Love to everyone, I look forward to spending more time with you. Lord willing of course.
Hugs to all and wishes for a very Merry Christmas and a most blessed New Year!
Debbie
