I can't believe it is already July!!
So let's plan a fun ATC swap. Now, we know that an ATC is Artist Trading Cards...a small 2 1/2 inch by 3 1/2 inch sturdy cardboard card that you cover and use all sorts of mediums to decorate! (There is a more indepth description of ATC's further back in the threads of the Farmgirl Swaps)
Any hoo, to make this one different instead of making them rectangle, we are going to make them round!!! How about that!!! Something a little different! The size of the round ATC's would be about the size of a coaster, no larger than 3 inches in diameter.
1. The theme of the swap is Fall
2. You will make 2 round ATC's
3. Put your name, name of the swap, and date on the back of each card
4. Decorate as if you would the rectangle ATC's
5. Sign up ends August 13th
6. Please mail the cards to me by August 15 and when all are received they will be divided and you will receive 2 cards mailed back to you.
7. Please include a self addressed envelope with 3 stamps on the envelope.
8. I will send my address to you when you are ready to mail your cards
Have fun and Happy Crafting! Smiles
You can never be to kind! |

Glad you liked the puppies Mary.
It was a vintage birthday card. I thought they were sweet.
Your scrapbooking weekend must have been fun! I've been wanting to do one of those.
I'd need a week or more alone to catch up on my scrapbooks!

I received 2 lovely round ATC's and brought them to a scrapbook weekend. They seemed to have been passed around and I only have one now. Sorry to whomever sent me the other lovely one
SO THANK YOU JENNY for the wonderul puppy card. (Love puppies!) It is truly delightful.
(Re Round ATCs. Some of the reactions were sooo funny. ROUND?? A ROUND?? ATC you say. They aren't round. Reminds me of the time I was teaching preschoolers: "Mandy, what color are your going to make your sky?" Mandy, exasperated with teacher: "Blue Teacher. Skies are BLUE ! LOL!!)

I just love it and thank you so much. I got some neat ideas from it.

Hi me again, Beth, I think you gave the one meant for you to Connie. I know you like owls, so I made an extra ATC for your collection. Why do I think your name was on it, I think I'm losing it LOL

What creative atc's everyone has made. I save all the farmgirl ATC's
I've received as well as other small MJF exchange creations and I
decorate my 4 ft. white Christmas tree with them for my craft room.
It's so much fun to enjoy them for the whole Thanksgiving/Christmas
season. 
What I make with my
hands, I give with my heart .... |

I got my Atc's and they are so cute. One is from Darlene, it has fall leaves with like candy wraps around it, and peacock feathers. I love and the second is from Mary Duffel" Madelena. So cute a little bird sitting on a branch and a little bee on the limb. I just loved this swap with round Atc's. Hope we do this again. Thank you two love them! Marlee

Beth,
Thank you so much for hosting this Round ATC swap. It was challenging at first but so much fun. Thanks also for the peacock feather and postcard. I collect postcards.
Please, please, host a Christmas Round ATC swap. I think we should do at least three ATCs or more. We could get started now since all the craft shops are loaded for the holidays. Imagine how pretty the ATCs would be on mantles, wreaths or Christmas trees.
Hugs
